Big Changes!
1st May 2026 is the day that the majority of the changes in The Renters Rights Act kick in.
As of today, a landlord has to give grounds to a tenant if they want possession of the property, you must grant a reasonable pet request, and you cannot ask for more than a month rent in advance.
There are also longer notice periods that a tenant has to be given by a landlord and a tenant cannot be asked to leave in the first 12 months. However, tenants cannot be tied into a period longer than two month notice.
If you add make tax digital and the arrival of Selective Licensing in Great Yarmouth there is an awful lot for landlords to contend with.
