Agent Rainmaker Event to Focus on Sector Changes After Renters Rights Act
Agent Rainmaker has announced the theme for its 2026 flagship event, AR Live 2026, which will take place in London this November. The event will centre on the theme ‘Unbroken’, marking a shift from previous years.
According to the announcement, the theme was chosen in response to significant changes in the lettings sector following the introduction of the Renters Rights Act and the abolition of Section 21. The report states that many agencies have seen managed stock fall sharply, and traditional methods for winning and retaining landlords have stopped working overnight.
Agent Rainmaker founder Sally Lawson described the new theme as focusing on reality rather than aspiration. The event aims to address the challenges faced by letting agents and property professionals as the sector adapts to the new legislative landscape.
The organisers note that the industry cannot rebuild using the same models as before, highlighting the need for new approaches in the wake of recent reforms.
