Landlords' Forum
Landlord Forums are an essential point of contact between the local authorities and the private rented sector by enabling the exchange of ideas and allowing discussion between the promotion and development of partnership working arrangements. Dartford Borough Council, along with Gravesham Borough Council, holds the joint quarterly meetings with private sector property owners, agents or representatives operating in both areas.
Next meeting
5.30pm on Wednesday 19 November 2008 at Civic Centre Dartford Borough Council
The Forum begins at 5 pm for a 5.30 pm start, giving the opportunity for networking between local Landlords and time to view the exhibition stands. The theme for the meeting is ‘How to Beat the Credit Crunch’ with topics to help Landlord’s overcome this difficult financial period.
