Renters rights act
A new Act of Parliament protects renters from ‘no fault’ evictions and gives them the right to end tenancies with two months’ notice.
Shelter produced here advice for private renters and Pinsent Masons issued a guide for landlords here.
Renters will see further reforms to end bidding wars and to stop landlords demanding more than one month’s rent upfront. Tenants will be able also to challenge unfair rent increases and ask to keep a pet.
