Landlord Forum

Our Landlord Forum returns to Leamington Spa for the Spring show.

Warwick District Council in partnership with the local Landlord Steering Group are pleased to invite you to our Landlord Forum at the SYDNI Centre, Leamington Spa.

This is a free event for landlords, letting agents and others involved in letting property in the private rented sector.

Exhibitions from local specialist companies will cover aspects of property management and support organisations will help smooth the tenancy pathway.

Delegates are able to network with other professionals and a range of experts will be on hand to answer questions.
