🚨 5 key changes for tenants from 1st May 2026 🏠 The new Renters' Rights Act means: 1. Landlords can no longer evict tenants through no-fault evictions - they need a valid reason. No more bidding wars - landlords can’t ask for more than the advertised rent price. Landlords can only ask for a maximum of one month’s rent upfront. Landlords can’t just say no to pets - they must consider requests reasonably. No more fixed-term tenancy contracts. Rolling contracts will give more flexibility.
