Century Films are looking to put together a character driven observational documentary on the real nuts and bolts to what being a landlord means – and what the property rental business is really like. It’s planned to be a three-four part series for Channel 4 and Century Films are keen to show what goes into being a landlord on an everyday level.
Now I can’t vouch for what they will film or how they will edit – but what I do know is that having spoken with them – they seem pretty keen to show the reality of what being a landlord is – to dig deep into what being a landlord actually means and the day-to-day running of the business. Interestingly, they are also looking at what makes a good/bad property investment so I think the scope of this project sounds much broader than what it initially may set out to be.
So if you’re a big landlord (c.100 properties) with a personality and fancy showing the rest of the world what day-to-day life is like, drop me a line and I will pass on all your details to Century Films. And if this may not be you – but you know someone else who fits the bill – then just send them a link to this post!

My business partner Wendy Waring would be ideal for this. she has been on TV before and is hilarious. See http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LP0xqu6cMvY and http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gSAOmvUNdEg for a basic screen test but this doesn’t do her justice. We have about 110 houses, all DSS. You’d love it, Littlejohn’s “you couldn’t make it up” comes to mind.
