π¨ LANDLORDS β ANOTHER CHANGE IS COMING π¨
The Government has now released more information about the new private landlord and property registration service being introduced under the Rentersβ Rights Act.
For landlords in Yorkshire & Humber, registration is due to start from 15 April 2027, with a deadline of 14 July 2027.
π· The cost? Β£65 PER PROPERTY, PER YEAR.
So if you own:
π 1 property = Β£65 a year
π 5 properties = Β£325 a year
π 10 properties = Β£650 a year
Landlords will need to register themselves AND their rental properties, providing information about ownership, tenancy details, rent, licensing and compliance including things such as:
β
Gas Safety
β
EICR
β
EPC
β
HMO / Selective Licensing
β
Occupancy details
β
Rent information
And yes⦠it will need renewing every year.
Eventually, properties will also need to be registered before they can even be advertised to let.
If your property is managed by Higson Homes, donβt panic. Weβll be reviewing our records and compliance information well ahead of the deadline and keeping our landlords updated as more guidance is released.
This is another big reason why having your paperwork, certificates and property records properly managed is becoming more important than ever.
π² Weβll keep you updated as the rollout progresses.
