May 1, 2026 is now weeks away. Every London landlord needs to understand what changes on that date.
Phase 1 of the Renters' Rights Act 2025 comes into effect. Section 21 evictions are abolished.
All assured shorthold tenancies automatically convert to open-ended periodic tenancies. Rent increases are limited to one statutory increase per year.
And if your gross rental income exceeds £50,000, digital record-keeping and quarterly reporting under Making Tax Digital must be in place by 6 April 2026.
For HMO landlords, this is also the moment to understand the specific exemptions available under the Act and how they can be leveraged to add stability to your portfolio.
Your eviction processes, tenancy agreements, and rent review strategies all require immediate review. Landlords who have not prepared yet are running out of time.
Cloud Rooms is helping London HMO landlords navigate every aspect of this transition.
