Scotland landlords and letting agents, now is a good time to plan for Awaab’s law style duties coming in October 2026. The basics are practical: schedule regular inspections, look for early signs of damp and mould, make reporting routes simple for tenants, and line up contractors so investigations can happen quickly. The new rules focus on speed and evidence, so having a clear process will make life easier. 🔍🏠

Even with clear deadlines, real life access issues and contractor availability can cause delays. Under the proposed Scotland approach, landlords would still need to do three things if they cannot meet the timescales: tell the tenant the reason, give an expected date for compliance, and take reasonable steps to reduce the impact of damp or mould during the delay. Clear, written updates protect both sides when things do not go to plan. 📝🏠

Here is the headline change for Scotland landlords from 6 October 2026. After a damp or mould report, there are expected to be fixed timescales: investigate within ten working days, send a written summary within three working days of completing the investigation, then start safety repairs within five working days where needed. If your current process depends on availability and memory, it is worth building a simple workflow now. ⏱️🏠

Awaab’s law is expected to come to Scotland from 6 October 2026, creating clear legal duties for landlords around damp and mould. This is not just a policy update. It introduces set timescales for investigation, written communication to tenants, and starting repair work where safety issues are identified. If you manage rentals in Scotland, this is the kind of change you want to read now, not after a complaint lands. 🏠📢

Rental discrimination is not always a blunt refusal.

In Scotland, the new rules also cover quieter barriers, like blocked enquiries, delayed viewings, or “standard” criteria that makes it harder for families or people receiving benefits to rent.

A simple next step is written criteria that is used for everyone, with good records of how decisions were made. 📝🏠 https://bit.ly/4bHEJ8f
