Why this summit exists

For too long, property has gone without a gathering of its own.

Every year the industry deals with changes to tax, legislation, licensing, interest rates and the planning system. Landlords and developers are left to piece that together alone, and most media is anti-landlord while the rest has something to sell you.

The Landlord & Developer Summit is built to be the linchpin conference for the property industry. It is where established landlords and developers meet to hear what the next 12 months holds, what opportunities lie ahead and which pitfalls to avoid.

You hear it from those leading the charge, in government, housing and local authorities. Not from influencers and course sellers.

Delegates: 400+Established landlords and developers
Date: 8 Oct 2027A weekday, for people in property full time
