The best landlord networking events in London this autumn are the National Landlord Investment Show (28 October), the monthly pin and Central London Property Network meetups, the Progressive Property Network hubs, and our own UK Homes Network LIVE London on 19 November in Walthamstow. Each puts you in a room with other landlords and the people who make letting easier: mortgage brokers, letting and management agents, insurers, solicitors and accountants. Below are the dates, what each is like, and the questions worth asking while you're there.
This page focuses on landlords. For every type of event across the capital, see our full guide to property networking events in London.
Landlord networking events in London: where landlords meet
London landlords tend to meet in three kinds of room. Each one suits a different job, and most landlords we know use a mix.
Landlord shows
The National Landlord Investment Show comes to London on Wednesday 28 October 2026. Tickets are free, and the programme includes Renters' Rights Act training, new investor masterclasses and Property Developer Live, alongside an exhibitor floor and networking. It's aimed at landlords, investors and letting agents. No 2027 London date has been published yet.
Looking further ahead, the Property Investor Show runs at ExCeL London from Friday 16 to Sunday 18 April 2027. It's free to register and built for UK landlords, passive investors and overseas buyers, with exhibitors and seminar theatres. Our guide to property shows in London covers the big daytime expos in more detail.
Monthly landlord meetups
If you want to see the same faces every month, the regular evening meetups are where landlord relationships build up over time.
- pin (property investors network) runs two active London meetings, Blackfriars and Clapham. Each evening has mortgage and lettings market updates, two speakers and a service-provider break. Meetings are £25 including VAT, or £15 a month as a member, and pin offers a free first meeting with a promo code.
- Central London Property Network meets monthly at the London Bridge Hotel with themed panels. The 28 October evening is a Budget Special with an HMO focus, which makes it one of the most landlord-relevant nights of the autumn. Tickets for November were listed at £27.80.
- Progressive Property Network (PPN) has London hubs in Stratford, Islington (PPN Holborn), Farringdon (PPN Blackfriars), Stanmore and Bromley. Each runs monthly with expert speakers and networking. Prices aren't shown on PPN's own site, so check with the hub host before you go.
Evening exhibitions
An evening exhibition mixes the two: a social night out with a floor full of the businesses landlords actually use. That's the format we run.
Our event: UK Homes Network LIVE London, Thursday 19 November 2026. An evening property exhibition at Big Penny Social, Walthamstow, 6pm to 11pm. On the floor you'll find landlord insurance specialists C&C Insurance Brokers (including HMO and serviced accommodation cover) and Bridge Insurance Brokers (blocks of flats), law firm Taylor Rose, Dua Accountants, specialist lender Roma Finance and brokers VIBE Finance, Grand Union Finance and Merryoaks for buy-to-let and HMO finance, iad for lettings and property management, COHO's software for shared-house landlords and Property Compass for investment analysis. Entry includes two drinks, food and hosted introductions, and Gatha launches live on stage at 7:45pm. See the London night in full.

Why landlords are networking more now: the Renters' Rights Act
The biggest reason London landlords have been turning up to events this year is the Renters' Rights Act. It received Royal Assent on 27 October 2025, and the main tenancy changes came into effect in England on 1 May 2026. Here's what the government says has changed, in brief.
| What | When | Source |
|---|---|---|
| Section 21 "no fault" evictions abolished; landlords use a section 8 notice with a legal ground for possession | From 1 May 2026 | GOV.UK overview for landlords |
| Existing assured shorthold tenancies became assured periodic tenancies, with no fixed end date | From 1 May 2026 | GOV.UK overview for landlords |
| Rent increases limited to once a year, with at least two months' notice through the formal process | From 1 May 2026 | GOV.UK overview for landlords |
| Ban on rental bidding, limits on rent in advance, and a duty to consider tenants' pet requests | From 1 May 2026 | GOV.UK implementation roadmap |
| Renters' Rights Act Information Sheet to be given to tenants on existing written tenancies | By 31 May 2026 | GOV.UK overview for landlords |
| Private Rented Sector Database registration opens, starting in the West Midlands and rolling out to other areas over 12 months; all landlords actively letting must be registered by 14 November 2027 | From 15 December 2026 | GOV.UK announcement, 9 September 2026 |
| Membership of the new private rented sector Landlord Ombudsman becomes mandatory | By 2028 | GOV.UK implementation roadmap |
This is a summary, not advice. How the rules apply to your tenancies depends on your own situation, so talk to a solicitor or your letting agent. That's exactly the kind of conversation a good landlord event makes easy: you can ask three solicitors and two agents the same question in one evening and see whose answer makes sense.
What we notice at our events is that landlords now arrive with sharper questions. A year ago the talk was mostly about yields and refinancing. This year it's possession grounds, rent review processes and whether to self-manage or hand over to an agent.
The landlord question bank
The fastest way to get value from a landlord event is to walk in with the right questions for the right people. Pick a topic below. Each question tells you who to ask.

Who to meet at a landlord event
Most landlords leave an event with a pocket full of business cards from the wrong people. Use this checklist to make sure you speak to the ones that matter. It saves your progress in your browser, so you can tick people off on the night.
Who to meet at a landlord event
For openers and follow-up messages that don't feel salesy, see our guide on how to network at property events. If you're thinking about growing a portfolio rather than running one, our page on property investor networking events in London is the better next read.
Are landlord networking events worth it?
For most landlords, yes, if you choose the right room and go with a purpose. A free show is good for a day of seminars and browsing. A monthly meetup builds relationships slowly. An evening exhibition lets you meet a broker, a solicitor, an insurer and a handful of other landlords in one night.
The value usually comes from one or two conversations: the agent who takes a problem property off your hands, or the broker who spots a better product before your fix ends. As Emma from Capital Rise Estates put it after our Birmingham night, "It's full of really great people, the food is also insane. 10 out of 10."
Come and meet London's landlords on 19 November. UK Homes Network LIVE London is our evening exhibition at Big Penny Social, about ten minutes' walk from Blackhorse Road station. Over 18s, smart casual, 250+ expected. Tickets are on Eventbrite, or read more about our London property event.

They are if you go with a clear aim. The best landlord networking events in London put you in front of brokers, agents, solicitors, insurers and accountants in one place, and let you compare answers from other landlords. One good introduction, such as a broker who saves you money on a refinance, usually covers the cost of a ticket many times over.
Are there free landlord events in London?

The National Landlord Investment Show offers free tickets for its London show on 28 October 2026, and the Property Investor Show at ExCeL is free to register. pin offers a free first meeting with a promo code.

Many do. The National Landlord Investment Show lists Renters' Rights Act training in its seminar programme, and pin meetings include lettings market updates.

Some senior networking events at private members' clubs have stricter dress codes, so check the listing.
