The cost of growing our food is still higher than before the conflict in the Middle East. To counteract some of that, the government's laid out a "Great British Savings" bonanza aimed at making life a little less expensive for everyone. There'll be cuts to tariffs on more than 100 food imports sold in supermarkets and fuel duty on red diesel will be reduced by a third. We visit a strawberry grower in Kent to find out how they're coping with rising costs.A new trade deal has been announced with a group of six states in the Gulf, including Saudi Arabia and Bahrain. It'll remove export tariffs and open the door to market expansion. We speak to the International Chamber of Commerce and the NFU for their reaction. The Climate Change Committee has published a new report about the consequences of a 2% rise in global temperatures and what the UK needs to do about it. We ask what it means for farmers.A fifth of the Duchy of Cornwall's property, owned by the Prince of Wales, could be sold in the next 10 years to help invest £500m into tackling housing and nature crises.

Researchers at Leeds University say a new study shows deliberate burning of moorland for grouse shooting leads to an additional half a million people, on average, being exposed to unsafe levels of particulate pollution - that's on top of the pollution cause by wildfires. The study was co-authored by the Royal Society for the Protection of Birds, which is calling for a licensing scheme for controlled burning to be brought in for England. In Scotland a plan to bring in licensing was temporarily put on hold by the Scottish Government in the aftermath of extensive wildfires last summer. Moorland managers argue that wildfires cause more pollution than controlled burning - and that controlled burning reduces the risk of wildfires.A fifth of the Duchy of Cornwall's property, owned by the Prince of Wales, could be sold in the next 10 years to help invest £500m into tackling housing and nature crises.

The Residential Tenancies Bill has now passed the Dáil and is set to come into effect on March 1st, bringing major changes to the rental market. The new law will allow landlords to reset rents to market rates when a property becomes vacant — a move the Government says will boost investment and supply, but which tenant groups warn could drive rents even higher. With protests taking place outside Leinster House this week and concerns that tens of thousands of first-time renters could be affected, Megan Kenny, Threshold's National Casework Manager spoke with Alan Morrissey on Friday's Morning Focus.

An Ennis solicitor claims the exodus of landlords from the rental market will continue into the new year. The Residential Tenancies Amendment Act was passed in June of this year and under the amendment, the entire country became a rent pressure zone while yearly rent increases were cappped at 2%. Under the new legislation, also implemented Tenancies of Minimum Duration, which take effect from March 2026, has resulted in older landlords choosing to sell their property before the measures take effect. Sharon Cahir of Cahir & Co Solicitors in Ennis says the act has in no way encouraged landlords to stay in the rental market.

Today's location-specific episode features Queensland Australia, which is my first non-North American location.  We explore the overview of the housing guiding document called The Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008.  Tenancies in Queensland have different rules based on different types of rentals including “general” tenancies for apartments or houses, then another tenancy type for moveable homes (like in a RV known as a caravan), and then a different type for roommate/shared accommodations.Each of my location-specific podcasts is set up the same way answering the same four questions:  1) What are the basics of the The Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 20082) What are the nuances of this location – what is different that stands out?3) Some guidance about abandoned items left behind by a tenant in a rental in Queensland Australia4) Where to get help in your local area in Queensland Australia.  Then I'll go through what I call my “Bingo Card” of standard items I see most often in tenancy laws in different locations.  This episode is NOT all inclusive – you must research further in your specific area including your County, Regional District, Parish, City or any other Governing Body that involves your rental location, but today's episode will get you started!This episode includes resources for Queensland Australia including:Residential Tenancies and Rooming Accommodation Act 2008Queensland tenancy laws | Residential Tenancies AuthorityForm-18a-General-tenancy-agreement.pdfOverview of the 1 May 2025 Tenancy Law Changes – What you need to know – Tenants QueenslandTenant Rights in Queensland: A Comprehensive Guide - aussierentlaws.comQSTARS | Renting in QueenslandAbandoned property and goods | Residential Tenancies AuthorityREIQ | Trash or treasure? - Best practice for dealing with abandoned goods

This lecture covers the essential aspects of real property law, focusing on concurrent ownership, leasehold estates, and non-possessory interests. It begins with an exploration of concurrent ownership types, including tenancy in common, joint tenancy, and tenancy by the entirety, along with remedies like partition. The discussion then shifts to leasehold estates, detailing various forms and their implications for landlords and tenants. Finally, the lecture delves into non-possessory interests, including easements, covenants, and licenses, providing a comprehensive overview of property rights and responsibilities.This lecture provides an overview of various aspects of real property law, building on previous discussions of possessory estates. It first examines concurrent ownership, where multiple parties hold simultaneous interests in property, covering tenancy in common, joint tenancy, and tenancy by the entirety, and discussing remedies like partition. The text then explores leasehold estates, including estates for years, periodic tenancies, and tenancies at will, outlining the rights and duties of landlords and tenants, such as the covenant of quiet enjoyment and the implied warranty of habitability. Finally, the lecture addresses nonpossessory interests, such as easements created through different methods, real covenants, equitable servitudes, and licenses, explaining their creation and enforceability.TakeawaysConcurrent ownership allows multiple parties to hold interests in the same property.Tenancy in Common is the default form of concurrent ownership.Joint Tenancy includes the right of survivorship, which can be severed.Tenancy by the Entirety is exclusive to married couples and offers protection against individual creditors.Partition is a remedy for co-owners to terminate co-ownership.Leasehold estates grant exclusive possessory rights for defined periods.An estate for years ends automatically upon expiration without notice.Periodic tenancies require proper notice for termination.Tenancies at will can be terminated by either party at any time.Easements are non-possessory rights to use another's land for specific purposes.Real Property Law, Concurrent Ownership, Leaseholds, Non-Possessory Interests, Tenancy in Common, Joint Tenancy, Tenancy by the Entirety, Leasehold Estates, Easements, Covenants

The number of Kāinga Ora tenancy terminations is being described as a far cry from what's needed. Newstalk ZB can reveal the agency terminated 299 tenancies in the year to March – more than double the 134 in the year before. Much of the increase is from Kāinga Ora taking a stronger line on disruptive tenants and rent arrears. Litigation lawyer Adina Thorn told Mike Hosking Kāinga Ora needs to evict 1,000 to 1,500 tenants by her own calculations. She says nobody wants to live in public housing when they're next people described as the worst of the worst. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As of last week, the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill came into effect, allowing landlords to end a periodic tenancy without needing to give a specific reason, changing legislation introduced by the previous Labour government in 2020. The government says the bill, which passed its third reading in December, is aimed at enticing more rental properties to be in the market. However, this move has raised concerns from those renting, due to concerns such as retaliatory evictions from landlords. On Friday, News and Editorial Director, and Monday Wire Host, Joel, spoke to the President of Renters United; an advocacy group of renters, Zac Thomas, about the Residential Tenancies Amendment Bill coming into effect. They started off by asking how the organisation is feeling about this amendment as a whole.

Property Law What is Property? Property is a legally protected interest in something tangible or intangible. It can be classified into real property (land and attachments) and personal property (movable items and intangible rights). The Bundle of Rights Theory views property rights as a collection of individual rights, including possessing, using, excluding others from, and transferring ownership. History of Property Law Property law originated from English common law and developed through feudalism, market economies, and American colonial history. The feudal system transitioned into a system of private ownership. In American history, property law played a role in nation-building (Homestead Act of 1862) but was also used to dispossess Native Americans and justify slavery.

How long is too long when it comes to a tenancy agreement?  Is that even a concern?  Jo-Anne Oliveri thinks so and in this show she makes some very good points that every landlord needs to consider on this subject.  She challenges the fact that your property manager boasts about how long their average tenancy is - the impact on the property of a long tenancy and the property's viability as an investment.  Then we turn our attention to the growing cost of owning a property in a Strata development with Amanda Farmer one of Australia's leading strata law specialists.  Subscribe for free to Realty Talk on the Property Hub channel, join our community and get more insights here: https://linktr.ee/propertyhubau Property Hub is a collaboration between Bushy Martin from KnowHow Property, Kevin Turner from Realty, Andrew Montesi from Apiro Marketing and Apiro Media, and Australia's largest independent podcast network DM Media.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A Kāinga Ora tenant whose family has been threatened with a hammer by a neighbour, says her complaints have fallen on deaf ears. Despite receiving more than 8,000 complaints in the past year, the state housing provider has terminated just seven tenancies over that period. Rayssa Almeida reports.

Mid West Simon is advising Clare renters to hang on to their tenancies by their fingernails if necessary. The Simon Community's most recently published "Locked Out Of The Market" report has revealed there are just 27 properties nationwide available within the limits of the Housing Assistance Payment with 16 of these in Dublin. Meanwhile, an analysis of Daft.ie shows there are just 31 properties to rent in Clare with the cheapest being a house in Shannon for €750 per month. Mid West Simon CEO Jackie Bonfield says that due to the scarcity of properties on the market, renters are forced to settle for any available tenancy.

In this episode of the Smart Property Investment Show, Phil Tarrant talks to Luke Jorgensen, leasing and acquisitions operations manager at Defence Housing Australia (DHA), to discuss the prime investing opportunity presented in providing housing for Defence personnel. They discuss the benefits of leasing properties to DHA, including long-term, secure tenancies and the additional property care services provided, virtually taking the hassle out of maintaining your investment. They also touch on the findings of a recent report that compares the holistic cost of holding investment properties with the fees charged by DHA. Luke explains how DHA's fees stack up against traditional property management costs, noting that by taking a lot of the unknowns out of the process of renting out a property — the vacancies during turnover for example — the overall cost is comparable or even lower than leasing your property on the wider market.

Many New Zealanders renters have become accustomed to the exhausting task of packing up and moving house every year or two. But a new 350-apartment development planned for Auckland's Takapuna could signal a shift towards large-scale projects built with long-term renters in mind. These 'build-to-rent' apartments provide tenancies of up to 10 years, giving renters some peace of mind. But while some believe these developments could help alleviate New Zealand's housing shortage, one developer says they won't sate people's desire to own their own home. Tom Taylor reports.

The exodus of landlords from the private rental sector could result in the loss of 15,000 tenancies this year alone, new data shows. Carol Tallon, CEO of Property District and author of the Irish Property Buyers Handbook annual spoke to Shane Coleman this morning.

On Tuesday's Morning Focus, Alan Morrissey was joined by Avril Collentine of Cahir & Co. Solicitors to find out more about the Residential Tenancies Board and the recent changes that have come into effect. Avril gave a general update for tenants and landlords on their rights and obligations along with providing information on the winter eviction ban.

In this episode, we discuss the pros and cons of both fixed-term and periodic tenancies. This allows property investors to decide which is better for them when renting out one of their properties. On one hand, fixed-term tenancies provide greater certainty that you'll have a tenant for a time. Though on the other hand, periodic tenancies are more flexible for both tenant and landlord. We also mention that our Wealth Plan book launch tour tickets are now live. Click the link to register.

Health officials warned the government not to strip emergency housing users of protection under the Residential Tenancies Act saying removing such rights couldn't be justified. The government went ahead anyway in 2020 and documents released under the Official Information Act show housing officials did not want people finding out what they were entitled to until after the law was changed. The Human Rights Commission is worried vulnerable people are being exploited and has been talking to dozens of them about their experiences. Sam Olley reports. [audio_play] In a statement the Acting Housing Minister Peeni Henare says the law change was a common sense move because things like notice periods for tenants don't align well with temporary accommodation. He says the new code has taken years to produce because of "the ongoing impact of Covid-19". The Ministry of Social Development says if someone in emergency housing is worried about their safety they should get in contact.

Farmers who currently get the highest level of government support for looking after the environment have been told they will be able to carry those schemes over for a further five years. We ask if that's good news, or if it could mean more delays for farmers transferring to the new Environmental Land Management schemes. We continue our look into Tenant Farming - today we hear concerns that farmers signed up for short tenancies could find applying for those new environmental protection schemes more difficult. Fiona Clampin meets Lewis Steer in Dartmoor. And we hear a new folk song that's been written to pay tribute to migrant seasonal workers. It was commissioned by researchers from the University of Leeds and Oxford who are running a project called 'Feeding the Nation' to track the experiences of workers throughout the 2020 and 2021 harvests.

Right now, the rental market is perhaps the toughest it has ever been and that's applying pressure to tenants and property managers in equal measure. Every property attracts multiple applications, and if an application is not up to par or a prospective tenant can't showcase the right skills, their application isn't even making the pile for consideration. For the property managers knocking back applicants, it's a heart wrenching daily reality that for every tenant they say yes to there is a lengthy list of applicants still in search of a roof over their heads. Paul Tommasini of the Tenancy Skills Institute is looking to address this by arming tenants with skills and education that help them better navigate the rental process. In the process he's helping people secure a rental property while also lightening the load of property managers by reducing the risk of failed tenancies. In this episode of the Elevate podcast with Elite Agent Managing Editor Samantha McLean, Paul looks at how education and skills underpin successful tenancies and shares an insight into an innovative Queensland program that's now seeking to go national. He discusses how the industry can play a role in tenant education and why skills and knowledge secure better tenancy outcomes. Paul also looks at the big-picture of Australia's current rental crisis, who it's impacting and how it might be solved, while noting his aim in the next five years is to see every child leave school with the skills they need to navigate the rental process. “I think if we can get people before they leave school we have a much better chance of creating better rental outcomes for everyone. Then that relieves the pressure on everyone. It relieves the pressure on our services system…but also relieves the pressure on property managers, which sort of flows out from when tenancies fail,” - Paul Tommasini. https://youtu.be/BbpYbAMM3L0 Paul and Samantha also discuss: Why a tight rental market like the present makes it all the more important to arm people with the right tenancy skills.The four key tenant skill sets that are required to ensure better tenancy outcomes, and why education is key to helping renters and property managers.How the Tenancy Skills Institute is working with the real estate sector to create a tenant education program that is fit for purpose, is recognised by the industry, and helps people secure a rental.Why a tenant education program was needed and the success it has had so far in improving the rental application process and ensuring fewer failed tenancies.Why property managers in Queensland are now recognising the education program and how it's being used to help tenants who do not have a rental history.Why Paul wants to see the program adopted in high schools and how that's set to help tenants and property managers in the future.How the program is now expanding with a view to going national, and why the real estate industry can play a key role in getting it off the ground.How education can help property managers ensure fewer tenancies fail, and where property managers and agents can find the resources they need to assist at-risk tenants.When a property manager might suggest a prospective tenant undertakes training, and how this helps create better outcomes.

In this episode I speak with Malcolm Combe, senior lecturer at the University of Strathclyde in Scotland. More information on Malcolm can be found here: https://www.strath.ac.uk/staff/combemalcolmmr/ Malcolm and I speak about his research into wrongful-termination of tenancy orders under the 2016 act, but also discuss the wider issues of tenancy protection and property law in Scotland and beyond. In our conversation we try to explore legal characterization of tenancies, as well as their after effects in relation to receiving wrong-termination orders and compensation as well as in relation to returning deposits. The article our conversation is based on is Combe and Robson, “A review of the first wrongful-termination orders made under the Private Housing (Tenancies) (Scotland) Act 2016: do they sufficiently protect those misled into giving up a tenancy?” 2021 Jur.
