Episode 66: Landlords' responses to the Renters' Rights Act
Jun 29, 202642 min
With the first phase of the Renters' Rights Act now in force we look at how landlords are responding to the new regulatory landscape. In the first part of the show we ask whether landlords are moving towards shorter term rentals as a result of the new Act and – with the loss of section 21 making it harder to get vacant possession – whether more landlord are looking to buy and sell with tenants in situ. We also take a look at how the changes coming in under the Act are impacting HMO landlords, many of whom believe they will be disproportionately affected by the changes. Meet the guests We talk to Merilee Karr, founding chair of the Short Term Accommodation Association and CEO of short-term rentals company UnderTheDoormat Group about whether landlords are turning to short term rentals as a result of the Act. We also ask James Donohue, founder of Landlord Property Exchange , a platform allowing landlords to buy and sell homes with tenants in situ, whether interest has increased now it is more challenging to get vacant possession. And we speak to HMO landlord Lucy Lea, Managing Director of LEA Property Solutions about how she and other landlords like her are managing the changes coming in, specifically new rules on pets and children in HMO properties. We also hear from Theresa Wallace, chair of The Lettings Industry Council (TLIC) about its new partnership with the NRLA.

Every question we get asked before someone starts their trial.
If you have a concern about deliverability, AI quality, data privacy, or whether this will actually work for your specific situation, it's probably answered below.
What is the difference between Founder Solo and Founder Pro?
Founder Solo gives you 50 AI pitches per month using the credit model (Standard pitches cost 1 credit, Enriched pitches cost 2). Founder Pro raises that to 200 credits per month and adds full Booking Probability access, unlimited Magic Match, Apollo enrichment credits, and data export capabilities. Both plans use the same credit system, so you can stretch your monthly budget further by using Standard-mode drafting.
How do agency tiers work?
Agency tiers have no base fee. You pay per managed client and per talent profile. Agency Standard is $199 per client per month; Agency Pro is $399 per client per month. Both add $39 per talent profile per month. Your own team's user seats are always free.
What is a talent profile?
A talent profile represents one person (founder, executive, or spokesperson) you are booking onto podcasts. It includes their bio, topics, headshots, and outreach history. Team plans include 5 profiles; agency plans are pay-as-you-go.
Can I switch plans later?
Yes, at any time. Upgrades take effect immediately; downgrades apply at the end of the current billing period. Contact support if you need help migrating between plan families.
Do you offer a free trial?
Every paid plan includes a 15-day free trial. Your card is saved at signup but you will not be charged until day 16. Cancel any time from your dashboard.
What happens if I cancel?
You keep access until the end of your current billing period. No charges after that. Your data is retained for 30 days in case you reactivate.
Is the 20% annual discount automatic?
Yes. Select Annual on the pricing toggle and the discounted price is applied automatically at checkout. The annual price shown is the full year cost.
What if I have more than 50 profiles or 20 clients?
