Attention Landlords - England

The first phase of the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 came into force in England on 1‌‌‌ May‌‌‌ 2026.

If you are a landlord with rental properties in England and the tenancy was created before 1‌‌‌ May‌‌‌ 2026, then there are actions you must take to make sure you comply with the legislation.

You need to give a copy of the government-produced Renters’ Rights Act Information Sheet to your tenants which explains what the new rules mean for their tenancy agreement.

Information Sheet:

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/the-renters-rights-act-information-sheet-2026

You need to give this to all your tenants before or on 31‌‌‌ May‌‌‌ 2026. You can give this by either posting or hand delivering a printed copy, or sending a digital copy, for example as an attachment to an email.

If the tenancy is based entirely on a verbal agreement, you need to give your tenant a written record of specific terms of the agreement, instead of providing the Information Sheet.

Guidance has been published on the information you’ll need to provide. You need to give this information to your tenants in writing before or on 31‌‌‌ May‌‌‌ 2026.

You can find out more about the Renters’ Rights Act and how it will affect the way you rent out property in England on GOV‌‌‌.‌‌‌UK.

Find out what you need to do if you own the property through shared ownership and need to take possession to sell the property (using Ground 1A) at this guidance for shared owners who are renting out their home.

Renters Rights Act 2025 (Scot.)

The Renters Rights Act 2025 includes legislation to prevent landlords and agents discriminating against those with children or in receipt of benefits when receiving applications for let properties.

The majority of the Act is relevant to England only aside from these new anti‑discrimination rules which apply directly to landlords and agents operating in Scotland.

From 1 May 2026, it becomes a criminal offence for a landlord or letting agent in Scotland to discriminate against prospective or existing tenants on the grounds of:

- Having children
- Receiving benefits (e.g., Universal Credit, Housing Benefit)

Examples of now‑illegal behaviour would be:

- Advertising “No DSS” or “No children”
- Informing a family a property has been let, & continue viewings for applicants without children
- Including tenancy terms that exclude benefit recipients or families

The full Act can be viewed here: https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2025/26/contents

Awaabs Law

A provision included in the Act is Awaabs Law. Coming into force on 1st October 2026 for Private Rented Properties in Scotland, this new law introduces clear timescales in which action must be taken to treat reported damp and mould.

Once a landlord becomes aware of a damp/mould issue they must complete an investigation into the issue within 10 working days. The investigation must be carried out by a competent person, which could be the landlord themselves if they have the necessary skills and experience.

Following this, a written report of the results of the investigation should be provided to the tenant within 3 working days.

If work is required to ensure the property is free of damp/mould, that work must commence within 5 working days of the completion of the investigation.

If a landlord is unable to act within these timescales, the tenant should be advised in writing the reasons why and the expected timescale in which any aspect of the investigation or work will be completed.

In instances where damp and/or mould is not a result of a building defect, landlords would be expected to work with tenants to signpost them to appropriate advice and guidance.

The Scottish Government are working to publish guidance on Awaab’s Law ahead of the regulations coming into force on 6th October 2026.

Current details available on this regulation can be viewed using the weblink
https://www.gov.scot/policies/private-renting/housing-standards/

Further information about these and other measures in the Housing (Scotland) Act 2025, will be sent by email in the coming months to all registered landlords from Landlord Registration, Registers of Scotland on behalf of the Scottish Government.

Housing (Scotland) Act 2025

Recent and upcoming changes

Requests for Rent and Property Details

From 1 April 2026, councils can ask registered landlords for rent and property information under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2025.

All councils must assess rent conditions in their area and submit a report to Scottish Ministers by 31 May 2027, and at least once every five years after that. This information helps Scottish Ministers decide whether a rent control area is needed.

Rent control areas can only be introduced where restricting rent increases is considered necessary and proportionate. Before any decision is made, Scottish Ministers must consult local authorities and representatives of landlords and tenants.

Why is this information be asked for?

Accurate rent information is essential to understand local rent pressures and to support fair, evidence based decisions.

The Act allows councils to request rent and property details from landlords once per year. These powers came into force on 1 April 2026.

You will receive no more than one request in any 12 month period
You must reply within 28 days
The information provided must be accurate
What information will be requested

For each property on your landlord registration, you will be asked to provide:

The type of tenancy (for example, a Private Residential Tenancy)
The current rent being charged
Previous rent payable and date of increase
The number of bedrooms
The number of floors
The type of property (for example, detached, semi-detached, terraced, or flatted)
