How can you guarantee a mobile tenant? Far too risky..
Are landlords justified in complaining about the new rules?

I agree you can't but if a landlord has a choice between a definitely long term tenant or a likely mobile tenant, they will pick the latter every time.
A low income family will be permanent, a young professional or a youngest from Brazil will likely be temporary so landlords will go for those from now on
Another reason why I am getting out. Trying to vet for tenants who won't stay forever is another layer of complication and risk.
Im getting out aswell, really cannot wait to be done with all of this..
AAM and the rental fiasco aint doing my mental health any good
And yet you believe it “must be hassle free”…
I think this might be a question for @LarryScott
Am in correct in saying, that if I signed up a tenant last year, the 2% rental cap was temporary and due to expire 28Feb2026? Is it the case that this rental cap is now permanent (unless a tenant moves out of their own accord, or they breach terms)? If so, isn't this a major change of the terms for existing accommodation providers? Can this be challenged?

Not only is it permanent, now you will be told what the rent is going to be. It might even be less than 2%. Using the RTBs website you will never again see market rent.
