Renters' Rights Act 2025: what it means for you
In plain terms: more security for tenants, clearer rules for landlords. Your deposit stays protected, rent can only rise once a year, and ending a tenancy follows set legal grounds. We handle compliance for you.
- End of Section 21 no-fault eviction, move to Section 8 grounds
- Periodic-only tenancies, 2-month tenant notice
- Rental bidding ban
- Rent rises capped to once per year with 2 months' notice, tribunal challenge route
- National landlord database and Private Rented Sector Ombudsman registration when in force
Rules differ by property, tenancy type and UK nation. See RRA guidance and Fees. Property-specific requirements are explained during your application.
