Renters' Rights Act

The Act aims to provide stronger rights and protections for renters in the UK.

The Renters' Rights Act aims to give private housing tenants greater security and stability so they can stay in their homes for longer, build lives in their communities and avoid the risk of homelessness.

The main measures will come into force on 1 May 2026 and be delivered in yearly phases.
