The UK’s newest housing law—the Renters’ Rights Act—is a landmark shift in the private rental sector. Having received Royal Assent in October 2025, the Act introduces sweeping reforms to protect tenants, improve living conditions, and rebalance power between renters and landlords. Here’s what you need to know.

The long-awaited Renters’ Rights Bill is on the verge of becoming law, and it’s set to bring the biggest shake-up to the private rental sector in years. For landlords, the new rules will mean:
