The Renters’ Rights Bill becomes The Renters’ Rights Act.

The Renters’ Rights Bill received final approval in parliament on 22nd October and Royal Assent 5 days later, on 27th October 2025, to become the Renters’ Rights Act. We now await a timeline for implementation on the different parts of the Act from the Government.

Whether you are a self-managing landlord, or you are represented by an agent, the Renters’ Rights Act is going to drastically change the way in which you are going to need to go about your business of lettings, at all levels.

While we wait, it is important to look at our processes and get prepared.

10 Questions to Ask Your Letting Agent NOW!

With the Renters’ Rights Bill and new legislation just around the corner, there’s never been a more important time to review your relationship with your letting agent — or to make sure you’re choosing the right one from the outset.

Landlords select agents for all sorts of reasons. Some are drawn to a recognisable brand, others to a large network of branch offices, some choose solely on price, while many rely on word of mouth. However, regardless of the reason for your choice , one thing is certain: your confidence in your agent’s ability to represent your interests and keep you compliant will be even more crucial under the new regulations coming our way in the industry.

The Renters’ Rights Bill is now on the brink of becoming law, following a series of rejections in the House of Lords earlier this week. Peers voted down several proposed amendments, and the Bill is set to return to the House of Commons for final approval next Wednesday (22nd October 2025) — the last step before it receives Royal Assent and officially becomes law
