The Property Franchise Group (TPFG) has raised a cautionary flag about the latest landlord taxes unveiled in the Budget.
While they’ve labelled these taxes as “disappointing,” the real kicker is the potential for higher rents. Yes, landlords might just pass these extra costs onto tenants, causing a ripple effect in rental inflation.
Despite the grim tax news, TPFG is all smiles about their financial health. Their revenues have seen a delightful 11% annual growth, thanks to strategic projects and initiatives like the Privilege programme. This initiative is a landlord and tenant support scheme designed to cushion the impact of the upcoming Renters Rights Bill, set to debut on 1 May 2026.

Gareth Samples, TPFG’s chief executive, is optimistic. He’s confident that their franchise model and diversified revenue streams will keep them sailing smoothly. With the Privilege programme rolling out successfully, they’re not just weathering the legislative storm but also generating additional income streams.
TPFG is on track to meet market expectations with a full-year adjusted profit before tax of a cool £30 million. So, while the new taxes may be a thorn in the side, TPFG’s strategic manoeuvres seem to be the balm needed to ease the sting. Here’s to hoping the rest of the property world can follow suit!
