TENANCY REFORM MEASURES TO TAKE EFFECT FROM 1ST MAY 2026!


Following the announcement of the bill gaining royal assent last month we have received another important update with a key date for our diaries.  

The tenancy reforms measures will take effect from 1ST MAY 2026!

Periodic tenancies

Section 21 abolished

Cap on rent in advance

Anti-discrimination measures

Ban on rental bidding

Annual rent increases via section 13 notices  

Tenant’s rights to request a pet 

As a company we are offering all of our tenants and landlords consultations in person or over the phone should they have any queries or concerns. We will be working to ensure a smooth transition and ensuring that all of our lettings staff are up to date with all the changes.
