A membership providing resources, support and community to the private rented sector in England.
The Independent Landlord Hub
The Independent Landlord Hub is a membership founded by former corporate solicitor turned landlord, Suzanne Smith, which provides practical guidance for landlords, letting agents, solicitors, and other property professionals in England.
A home for those who want to learn how to comply with the ever-changing rules, and have ready access to straightforward, up-to-date information, templates and courses.
"Hubbers" become part of a supportive community with a shared ‘good landlord’ approach, where they gain clarity and confidence in managing rental properties effectively.
The Hub is not a sales funnel. There is a strict “no promotions” rule, with no paid promotions, affiliate links or sponsored posts from service providers.
