Renters’ Rights Act: What you need to know.

From 1 May 2026, all assured shorthold tenancies will switch to open ended periodic tenancies, and the following changes are also being introduced:

🟠Section 21 “no fault” evictions will stop
🟠Rent can only be increased once a year
🟠Rental bidding will be banned
🟠Landlords can ask for no more than one month’s rent upfront
🟠A PRS Database and a Landlord Ombudsman will be introduced later in the year

How can you prepare?

✔️Re-forecast portfolio cashflows with customers (voids, rent review timing).
✔️Clarify new rent review process (Section 13, two months’ notice, tribunal challenge rights).
✔️Update docs for pet requests – no blanket bans; reply within defined timeframes.
✔️Track Database/Ombudsman go-live windows and eligibility.

When was the last time a check-out didn’t turn slightly awkward?

Most deposit disputes don’t start because someone’s being difficult. They start because the original inventory wasn’t detailed enough.

At Penguin Inventories, we focus on clear reports, strong photography and wording that actually stands up if it’s ever questioned.

Less grey area.
Less back and forth.
Less stress.

If you want your next tenancy to start and end properly documented, drop us a message 🐧

🏠 Letting agents — are your inventories working as hard as you are?

A thorough, professional inventory isn't just a tick-box exercise. It's your best protection when a tenancy ends and a dispute arises. Get it wrong, and you could find yourself caught in the middle with no evidence to back you up.

At Penguin Inventories, we take that pressure off your plate entirely.

We provide detailed, impartial property inspection reports for rental properties — so you can focus on what you do best, while we handle the paperwork that protects everyone involved.

✅ Check-ins & check-outs
✅ Mid-term inspections
✅ Detailed photographic evidence
✅ Fast turnaround times
✅ Reports that stand up to deposit disputes

Whether you manage 5 properties or 500, we're here to make your life easier and your landlords happier.

If you don’t want to referee end-of-tenancy arguments, get a proper inventory at the start.

It’s the property world’s equivalent of receipts.

No one cares until they REALLY care.

The Carpet Saga”

The end of a tenancy is basically a mystery series about carpets and walls.

Tenant: “Those marks were there when I moved in.”
Landlord: “Absolutely not.”
(Agent: deep sigh noises 🙄)

Meanwhile I’m just here with photos and timestamps like:
“Page 5, Exhibit A… let’s wrap this up.”

Inventories aren’t glamorous, but they do stop everyone arguing about carpets like it’s a crime scene.

If you want less drama at check-out, you know where to find me.
