RLA & NLA To Merge

Last week the RLA and the NLA announced that the 2 organisations are to unite to create a single organisation.  As a local organisation looking to both organisations in the past for national representation - the new organisation, to be called the National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA) looks compelling.  Combined they will have a single voice when representing us and they will have 80,000 members who own and manage half a million properties. 

The RLA"s training, support and education capabilities combined with those of the NLA plus the NLA staff around the country mean that, on paper, this merger should be good for us all.

The details have yet to be ironed out and the merger needs to be agreed by the members of both organisations. It will obviously be sometime before the relationship of the former affiliates of the RLA including the PDPLA will be agreed, so from a member perspective please do not worry, please continue to benefit from membership of both the PDPLA and the RLA until further notice.

About the author

Martin Silman

Martin began his landlord journey 30 years ago, while working in an international role for a global telecommunications company. Since retiring he has extended his portfolio, which he manages with his wife, but has always focussed on the ‘small student HMO’ sector preferring to offer homes in the community for small groups to the more common ‘pack them in and take the money’ mentality. He has chaired the PDPLA for the past 12 years and has overseen the Associations transition from small local self-help group to a much larger and more professional institution which is recognised and listened to nationally. Alongside his PDPLA role, he also has leadership roles in a number of other local organisations – bringing his unique perspective, driving for change and increased use of technology while respecting the history that brought us here.
