Why Landlords Are Selling 2,000 Student Beds Before the Rules Bite
YieldMe just processed £170 million worth of student HMO sales in a single year — over 2,000 beds gone, mostly from landlords who can't see a profitable path through the Renters' Rights Act. The smart money isn't running with them.

A landlord released £175k from one property without selling it. Remortgaged to 75% LTV, cleared the old debt, deployed the difference into two HMOs. UK Finance: BTL remortgages up 11.1% YoY in Q1 2026. The market knows something.

How the Renters' Rights Act Actually Changes HMO Investing
Section 21 abolished. Fixed terms gone. Every HMO room is now rolling periodic from 1 May 2026. Most landlords are panicking about the wrong things. #RentersRightsAct #HMO

A Reform UK council is investigating a borough-wide ban on new HMOs. Not a zone. The whole borough. Article 4 is accelerating — and existing compliant HMOs just got more valuable. #HMO #Article4
