Taking place on Thursday 27th April at the 100-capacity Picture and Private Screening Rooms at the Soho Hotel, London, the event will pose key questions such as: how the BTL market faring one year on from the SDLT increase; are lenders’ products supporting landlords and can the market stave off further intervention?

Confirmed participants for the panel questions and answers session include: John Eastgate, sales and marketing director, One Savings Bank; James Davis, CEO, Upad; D’mitri Zaprzala, head of sales, Octopus Property; Andrew Bloom, founder and CEO, Masthaven Bank; Alan Cleary, managing director, Precise Mortgages and Matthew Wyles, executive director, Castle Trust Capital Plc.

Wyles says: “PRA regulation and an increasingly complex fiscal landscape will inevitably impact structurally on the buy-to-let market. In this evolving environment, there will be a host of new opportunities for brokers to use their creativity to provide flexible funding solutions to help landlords to exploit the great potential for profit which exists.

“This event will provide an excellent chance for an experienced group of professionals from diverse backgrounds to debate the new strategies which our clients will inevitably demand from us during the coming months and years.”

The AOBP has also confirmed the major sponsor for the April Forum, Arthur Online.

Chief Technology Officer David Cummin, commented:

“Arthur online is a ‘first of its kind’ property management platform empowering property managers to connect with tenants, contractors, letting agents and property owners.  Full capability from the suite of apps and web allows users to manage their portfolio’s from anywhere in the world in real time.
