Landlord Database Roll Out Announced
Under The Renters Rights Act the government is committed to establishing a national landlord database.
All private landlords must register and there are heave fines for noncompliance of up to £7000 for one breach and up to £40,000 for multiple.
The government has announced that the roll out will start 15th December 2026 on a region by region basis. The West Midland go first with landlords having three months to sign up. We in the east of England are second with landlords needing to register between 15th January 2027 and 14th April 2027. The cost will be £65 per property.
This adds to the regulatory burden for landlords on the back of the first stage of The Renters Rights Act, Selective Licensing in Great Yarmouth already in place and ‘Make Tax Digital’ being phased in for rental income.
If you require a helping hand to guide you through the compliance minefield now associated with being a landlord, call us today on 01493 849111

The Importance of a High Street Presence
Going back to the 90’s there has been talk about whether a High Street or customer facing office is really important in estate agency.
Aldreds have always been based in High Street locations. In the last 25 years footfall into offices has fallen slightly but a huge amount of what we do day to day is still carried out face to face.
Just yesterday at the same time in our Gorleston office we had a client booked a valuation with Louis, a young couple registering and booking viewings with Tim and a seller in conversation with Melissa…..all at the same time.
Having our staff together helps us collaborate and work as a team. This was demonstrated the best during Covid lockdowns two and three when our staff worked in the office with precautions and social distancing while delivering truly incredible results for our customers.
You are always free to pop in and see us in Great Yarmouth, Gorleston, Lowestoft or Stalham offices!

A lot has changed in 25 years in estate agency..but some things are the same!
Director Dan Crawley joined Aldreds on 1st August 2001. 25 years ago this week
Dan says ‘when I joined Aldreds as a negotiator in 2001 email was not used at all, property marketing online was yet to take hold, mobile phone use was limited, and two big bags of post left the office every day. Times have changed and technology has brought innovation and speed to the sale and letting of homes with email and mobile phones speeding up contact, online marketing giving buyers access to properties at their fingertips and digital photography, floorplans and video enhancing and maximising property marketing.
‘When I first started. we knew that the Advertisers were being delivered as the phones would light up as the newspapers hit the letter boxes on a Thursday afternoon’
‘Some things have stayed the same, however, with contact with clients, keeping people informed and negotiating and working hard for the client being the basis for all we do’
‘I’m not sure I will do a Mark Duffield and hang about for 50 years…but I’m not going anywhere just
