This week: what 1 May really means for prime portfolios, why rents are climbing as landlords reposition, why the New York Times is using London as a cautionary tale, why wealthy Britons are quietly exiting, and why lenders are watching leasehold reform with concern.

Five stories every prime London property owner needs this week. Section 21 abolition is 11 days away and most landlords still aren't ready with a physical delivery deadline for the government information sheet on 31 May and fines up to £7,000. IHT business property and agricultural property relief caps are now live from 6 April, with defined contribution pensions entering the net from April 2027. LonRes March data shows 41% fewer sales year on year, while top-end rentals have turned positive. Mortgage rates have risen to 5.42% ahead of the Bank of England's 30 April decision. And the leasehold consultation closes Thursday with a freeholder coalition now mounting the first organised legal and public counter-campaign since January.
