Renters Rights Act 2025 and Landlord Changes Across the PRS
Speaker Des Taylor
As the Renters Rights Act 2025 expands council enforcement powers, Des Taylor, Casework Director at Landlord Licensing & Defence, explains how these changes tighten regulation and what they mean in practice for those who own, manage and invest in property.
Attention is drawn not to theory or policy headlines but to the reality of how these powers are already being used and how they will be applied going forward.
Des is recognised as one of England leading authorities on landlord and letting agent enforcement, licensing and Rent Repayment Orders, operating at the point where regulation turns into financial consequence.
Years of frontline casework since the Housing and Planning Act 2016 has created a depth of experience that places him in a uniquely strong position to interpret what is now unfolding under the new regime.
While much of the sector discusses guidance and compliance in principle, the consistent gap remains between what is written and what actually happens when enforcement begins.
That gap is where this work is focused, translating legislation into real world outcomes and exposing where risk genuinely sits.
As a keynote speaker, real cases are shared with sharp insight, delivered in a way that is engaging, direct and grounded in experience rather than assumption.
Complex rules are broken down into practical understanding so that those in the room know exactly where they stand and what actions must follow.
For landlords, letting agents and investors navigating an increasingly aggressive regulatory landscape, the value lies in leaving with clarity, direction and a stronger position than when they arrived.
This is why demand continues to grow, because when enforcement intensifies, clear thinking and informed action become the difference between exposure and control.
