Background

The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 is the biggest reform to the private rented sector in decades. It received Royal Assent on 27 October 2025, and the first major phase comes into force on 1 May 2026.

For letting agents, the changes are significant. New rules around tenancy types, eviction processes, rent increases, and anti-discrimination obligations all require your business to adapt, quickly and correctly.

UKALA helps it’s members to stay compliant, confident, and informed.
