@AnneAshworth @Savills Exactly right. The Landlord Information Sheet must be served to ALL existing tenants by 29 May. Without it, landlords can't even begin Section 8 possession proceedings. The document requirement is the one catching most people off guard.

A month ago it was said the Renters Rights Act could further shrink the rented sector. Now @Savills says the number of homes put up for sale in year to March was 9% higher at 254,000. Landlords staying in the biz should note the fines for failure to deliver a document to tenants!

Don't serve it? You cannot issue a valid Section 8 notice. No information sheet = no possession proceedings. The prescribed form will be on gov.uk. Do NOT use old tenancy info packs — this is a new form. Questions? Ask below.

What it is: A prescribed form setting out tenant rights under the new Act. Who needs it: Every tenant in an existing assured or AST tenancy. Deadline: 28 days from 1 May. That's 29 May at the latest. Don't wait.

The Landlord Information Sheet — the single most important document you need to serve by 31 May. Here's what every landlord needs to know about it:

@NRLAssociation The 28-day window to serve the information sheet will catch landlords off guard — especially those relying on agents who may not have the new prescribed form ready. Do it yourself, keep proof of service, don't wait for your agent to get round to it.

The first phase of the Renters' Rights Act has now been implemented. It's one of the biggest changes to the private rented sector in almost 40 years. Our Chief Executive, Ben Beadle, sets out what this means for landlords and what's still to come. 👉 Read the full statement: nrla.org.uk/news-historic-…

@landlord_secret Good advice on the BCC. Worth adding — if you're managing multiple properties, keep a log of when each one was served. Courts will want to see proof of service if it ever comes to a possession claim. Date, method, and a copy of what was sent.

Landlords remember to serve the govt RRA info form today then it's done. Even if you use an agent do this yourself to be sure you're covered. You can send as a PDF remember to BCC yourself & keep send copy assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/media/69bc04b8…

1 May 2026. It's official. The Renters' Rights Bill is now law. Section 21 is abolished. Here's what every landlord needs to do in the next 31 days: A thread.

@accusourcing Yes, the Charter sign-up is the clever bit. Links the grant to standards that matter for long-term tenancy quality rather than just a one-off insulation boost. If more councils copy this model we might actually see the supply side stabilise.

@Landlord_Shield Completely agree. A landlord who upgrades now avoids enforcement costs, protects their tenancy, and holds a more lettable asset going forward. The Good Landlord Charter sign-up requirement is also smart policy design.

Andy Burnham is offering landlords up to £30,000 in grants but only if they sign up to Greater Manchester’s Good Landlord Charter. With new EPC rules and the Renters’ Rights Act both arriving, here’s why getting ahead of EPC requirements now is a smart investment decision.

@rec777777 @BBCPolitics Sounds like a good plan honestly. Enjoy the break and the travel. Hope it all goes smoothly on the way out.

@Landlord_Shield @BBCPolitics Thanks I'm selling up, as my tenants leave I won't bother being a Landlord in future I'll buy some nice things, relax and travel more, now I won't have to look after tenants

@eaststaffsbc This is where it gets real. Councils now have £60m of dedicated enforcement funding, and the Information Sheet fine is mandatory, not discretionary. landlordshield.app automates the tracking for self-managing landlords so you do not miss the deadline. Live this week.

🚨 ATTENTION LANDLORDS You have until 31 May 2026 to comply with new Renters' Rights Act requirements. 1️⃣ Issue the official Information Sheet to tenants with written agreements. 2️⃣ Provide written terms for all verbal tenancies. Fines start at £7,000 for non-compliance 💸

@rec777777 @BBCPolitics Hearing this from a lot of private landlords right now. The hassle is the admin, not the fundamentals. Built landlordshield.app to automate compliance tracking so the paperwork stops being the reason to sell. Live this week if you want a look before making the call.

@BBCPolitics I'd happily sell to my tenants I've had to put their rents up twice since Labour got in, due to their Rent Reforms. I hadn't increased rents in 7 years prior to that Too much hassle being a Landlord now. My current tenants are my last

@rgsace @yardboyj @TheAlphaThought The admin is the real exit driver for small landlords, not the rules themselves. Built landlordshield.app to automate the compliance tracking so the paperwork stops being the reason to quit. Goes live this week.

@yardboyj @TheAlphaThought I agree. Also the public perception towards landlords is pretty negative and legislation is making it much harder for small landlords. Sadly it’ll just lead to higher rents as more landlord exit the market.

We were taught we have to save up and buy a home. This worked 20+ years ago but today buying a home to live in is probably one of the worst decisions in my opinion. Especially when you have stocks growing 100%+ YoY sinking that much capital into a home feels bad regardless of NW
