Over five years, the right tenant earns £20,570 more.

Price a flat high and you may attract tenants who don't stay. That means a new tenant each year, with empty weeks and re-letting costs every time. Price it right and choose a tenant who wants to settle, and it lets quickly and stays let. A tenant who values the area is also more likely to accept a fair rent review. By year four, they're paying more than the high-priced let.

Tenants now have to give two months' notice. Here's how to use every week of it.

Week 1: set the rent at market level, book photos and agree viewing times with the outgoing tenant.

Weeks 1–2: go live, advertising at the rent you'll accept. Bidding above the asking rent is now banned.

Weeks 3–6: hold viewings, reference your strongest applicant and take a holding deposit of up to one week's rent.

Weeks 6–8: check-out, any repairs and certificates in date, so the new tenancy starts as the old one ends.

Marketing that starts after the keys come back means weeks of lost rent.

One empty month costs you 8.3% of your year's rent.

At £1,850 a month, three empty months costs £5,550. That's a quarter of the year's income before council tax, utilities and the mortgage.

Tenants now give two months' notice. If marketing starts the day it arrives, the next tenant can be lined up before the keys come back.

The government has now confirmed dates for the new landlord register.

The Private Rented Sector Database opens in stages from December. On GOV.UK the service is called 'Register your rental property'. Every landlord with a let property in England will need to register, at £65 per property per year.

If your property is in Surrey or Sussex, it falls under the South East. That region opens on 15 March 2027 and the deadline is 14 June 2027. London opens on 15 July 2027 and the deadline is 14 October 2027.

The fee is the smallest part of it. Landlords who aren't registered will generally be unable to get a possession order, and councils can issue fines of up to £7,000 for a first breach.

You'll be asked for your gas safety record, EICR and EPC when you register. The sensible thing to do now is check that every certificate is in date and easy to find.

If you'd like us to check where your property stands, send us a message.
