Landlord & Property Exhibitions

Hi everyone...I'm co-founder and Director of the National Landlord Investment Show, one of the UK’s leading exhibitions dedicated to landlords, property investors, and developers and launched the show alongside my wife and business partner, Tracey Hanbury, in 2013.

The National Landlord Investment Show has grown into a major nationwide platform connecting landlords, investors, lenders, legal specialists, tax experts, PropTech firms, and property professionals.

The exhibitions are held across major UK cities including London, Birmingham, Manchester, Bristol, Southampton and in the County of Kent, attracting thousands of attendees annually.

Our Shows provide landlord education, professional development, and networking opportunities. Through the wider NLIS Media Group portfolio, we have also helped to expand related initiatives including Landlord Investor Magazine, Property Notify, UK Property News, Landlord Community Hub National LIS Awards, and other media and educational platforms supporting the UK buy-to-let market.

Over the years we have emphasised the importance of landlord education amid changes such as the Renters’ Rights Bill, Making Tax Digital reforms and more.

I am really looking forward to making new friends and long term connections.

The Road Forward

Consulting

I work with professional service businesses to fix bottlenecks to save them time and get more money - hopefully with existing resources!
Issues are often:

* Bottlenecks that harm their business and stop them getting the results they need
* Business processes that are unsuitable, broken or don’t exist
* Messy Data that causes confusion, ruins opportunity and gives them sleepless nights

Typically this might show up as founders wearing too many hats; or
directors or heads of department who have work that piles up, business blockers or constraints.
