The Happy Tenant Company has acquired the Landlord and Letting Show and its associated awards, plus magazine.

The Happy Tenant Company operates across London, and was founded by lawyer Jonathan Monjack.

Landlords pay a fixed annual fee, with no renewal charges. The company works with a panel of agents to find suitable tenants, and then manages the tenancy.

Adam Joseph, CEO of the Happy Tenant Company, announced that it will hold its first landlord conference this year.

He said that the acquisition will allow the creation of a platform to help educate landlords about the latest regulations and tax implications of letting properties.

He said: “With all of the changes currently happening in the market, I’m not convinced that the majority of landlords understand how it works and how it will affect them, particularly the removal of mortgage interest tax relief.

“Our landlord conference will target this very problem, with industry experts providing essential up-to-date information and advice through various seminars, workshops and panel discussions.

“This acquisition is part of our wider business plan to expand our communication with landlords whilst at the same time connect them with property professionals and suppliers.

“Our aim now is to establish partnerships with other like companies, who we are already in discussions with, to ensure the conference progresses, attracting new delegates.

“The HTC landlord conference will take on a whole new style and format with our own personal stamp on it.”

The Landlord & Letting Show website is currently carrying a message to say that the London Landlord & Letting Show has been postponed until further notice. It was to have been held in March.

Other venues are named as Manchester, Leeds, Cardiff and Coventry.

The Landlord and Buy to Let Magazine is a free title, edited by Oliver Romain.

The brands were previously owned by Accession Exhibition and Publishing Ltd which is due to be dissolved on August 19, according to Companies House.

A spokesperson for the Happy Tenant Company said: “Confidentiality of the agreement prevents Happy Tenant Company from disclosing details of the purchase. However, HTC have only purchased the brands and therefore not taken on any of the previous liabilities and have no involvement with the previous owners.”
