Renters’ Rights Act: Royal Assent & What Landlords Must Do Next
The Renters’ Rights Bill has now received Royal Assent and will soon become the Renters’ Rights Act. This landmark legislation marks the most significant overhaul of the private rented sector in a generation, bringing an end to Section 21 “no-fault” evictions and introducing new standards, periodic tenancies, and a host of compliance requirements for landlords.
In this concise webinar, Boydens’ award-winning lettings team breaks down what the Act means in practice, clarifies the timeline for implementation, and explains the immediate steps landlords and tenants can take to prepare. You’ll learn:
- Key reforms: from the abolition of fixed-term tenancies to changes in rent increases, deposit rules, and Section 8 grounds for possession.
- Compliance checklist: practical actions to ensure your documentation, referencing procedures, and property standards meet the new requirements.
- Timeline and next steps: what happens now that Royal Assent has been granted, and how the phased roll-out in 2026 will affect your lettings strategy.
