PRIVATE landlords across West Devon are invited to a special meeting next month for an update on the latest information which could be to their benefit.
West Devon Borough Council is staging the forum following a similar successful event earlier this year.
The council has more than 200 local landlords on its register and would welcome any new people who wish to attend.
Information at the event will include advice on the housing benefits service, support services available for landlords, facts on landlords' associations, leasing arrangements through a registered social landlord, and a representation by the rent officer service.
Marion Playle, borough housing services manager, stressed the importance the council placed on private landlords, with whom they had made a commitment to work more closely.
'At our first forum landlords welcomed the opportunity to talk to us, find out what advice and support we could offer and share experiences with each other.
'I hope more landlords will take this opportunity and come along to the event,' Ms Playle said.
The forum takes place on Tuesday, September 17 at 7pm at the council offices in Kilworthy Park, Tavistock. Refreshments will be available.
Anyone wishing to attend should contact Kim Makings, housing support officer, on 01822 813515 for further information.
