It’s open.

The new landlord register (the PRS Database) opens in the West Midlands on 15 December 2026, then region by region. Private landlords in England will need to register themselves and each let property, and keep the entries up to date. Your deadline depends on where the property is.

Still standing.

I became a landlord by accident.

I’ve been through a Section 8 possession claim, and I’ve asked myself “sell or stay?” more times than I can count. It was rarely the property. It was the paperwork.

Whether you sell or stay is your call. If the paperwork is what’s pushing you, that’s the part UNBOWED is here to carry. It’s what I wished I’d had.
