Landlord Law Blog Roundup from 23 February

This post is more than 10 years old

March 1, 2015 by Tessa Shepperson

Sold OutWell, our Cambridge Conference is now officially sold out!

Which is very exciting.  Enormous thanks to our media sponsors Property Industry Eye and LandlordZone, and also TDS who have helped us achieve this.

If you wanted to go but had just not got around to booking your place yet – all is not lost! You can  sign up to go on our waiting list.  Those at the top of the list will almost certainly be able to attend.  Not everyone has paid yet.

My new assistant Bev and I, will now be contacting all the non payers and giving them a deadline to pay up or lose their place.

If you are in Wales – we still have a fair number of places at our Welsh Conference – but bookings are coming in thick and fast there too – so don’t delay too long.
