Recent analysis suggests many rental properties are already approaching EPC rating of C before the 2030 deadline, particularly smaller homes and flats. While some properties will still require improvements, the path to compliance may be less daunting than many landlords expect.

At Rushbrook & Rathbone, we're helping landlords stay ahead of regulatory changes while protecting the long-term value of their investments.

New research reveals that the true cost of void periods has risen by more than 50%, driven by higher rents, council tax liabilities, utility costs and ongoing property expenses. Even a short vacancy between tenancies can quickly erode annual returns.

With rental demand remaining strong, reducing void periods should be a key focus for landlords and agents alike. Proactive tenancy renewals, early marketing, realistic pricing and efficient property turnaround times can all help minimise costly gaps in occupancy.

As the rental landscape continues to evolve, effective property management isn't just about finding tenants , it's about keeping properties occupied and income flowing.

A great tenancy starts with the right tenant.

New research highlights a concerning gap in tenant confidence when it comes to compliance with the Renters’ Rights Act.

Our survey of over 1,100 tenants found that only 32% believe their landlord or managing agent is fully compliant with the new legislation, while half reported receiving no communication about how the changes affect them.

At Rushbrook & Rathbone, we believe compliance is only part of the equation. Clear communication, transparency, and keeping residents informed are just as important.

Selective licensing schemes are local council regulations that require private landlords to obtain a licence to rent out a property within a designated area.

These schemes are designed to improve housing standards and ensure privately rented properties are managed responsibly. For landlords, staying compliant is essential to avoid penalties, protect your investment, and meet your legal obligations.
