RENTERS RIGHTS ACT The Government has now confirmed the implementation date for 'phase one' of the Renters Rights Act.

The first phase of reforms will come into effect on 1st May 2026. From this date, all existing assured shorthold tenancies will automatically transition to the new tenancy system, and all new private tenancies will be created under the updated rules.

Phase one focuses specifically on tenancy reform, including:
- The move to assured periodic tenancies
- Limits on rent in advance
- A ban on rental bidding
- Clearer regulations for rent increases via Section 13 notices
- Strengthened anti-discrimination protections
- New rights relating to pets in rented homes
