Update on Renters's Rights Bill

The Renters’ Rights Bill is new legislation set to transform the Private Rented Sector (PRS). Its aim is simple: give tenants greater security in their homes, while tackling poor-quality housing and unfair practices.

The Government has been clear: too many renters face insecurity, unaffordable rents, and substandard homes. This Bill is designed to change that.

The Key Reforms

Renters’ Rights Bill vs Renters Reform Bill

The Renters’ Rights Bill builds on the former Renters Reform Bill, adding new protections such as banning rental bidding wars and applying Awaab’s Law. Crucially, Section 21 will be abolished without waiting for court reform.

When Will It Happen?

The Bill is expected to receive Royal Assent in September 2025.

Most measures will take effect in early 2026, with immediate changes to ASTs and Section 21.
