I know there have been a thousand posts on this, but all saying how bad it is for LL's, how everybody is getting out.

If you really look at it - it actually changes very little.

It’s bad for LLs and renters. It’s all so poorly thought through. I’ve sold up.

Honestly what's bad for LL's?

If there were not such long delays in the court system I would agree with you. As a landlord, that makes me nervous. That said I've no intention of getting out of the market just yet, and I am a supporter of the bill. If I was mercenary Id be pleased it's pushed rental prices so high by driving so many competitors out of the market but my business model has always been about getting and keeping good tenants.

That's the business model for 99% of Landlords. Anything else is hyperbole.
