## 02. The Challenge

The rental landscape is changing fast. For tenants, landlords and agents alike it can seem like a complex, all-consuming beast of an industry. The ever-increasing legislation, whilst well-intentioned, has left many confused, overwhelmed and often unclear of their rights and responsibilities.
