The Renters’ Rights Act is here, and the rulebook for landlords and tenants is changing fast. We brought in Alice and Anthony McMullen of Homemaker Properties to translate the legal shifts into practical steps you can take today—and a timeline you can actually plan around.

We start with what lands first: new council investigatory powers this December and the end of Section 21 by May 1, 2026. Possession doesn’t vanish, it moves to Section 8—with specific grounds for selling or moving back in, tougher notice periods, and a higher bar for evidence. We dig into how to document conversations, serve notices you can prove, and avoid courtroom surprises. Then we unpack the big structural shift: all tenancies become periodic in 2026. That means flexible exits for tenants, and more methodical processes for landlords who want stability. Student lets and HMOs are a special case; Article 4 areas, seasonal gaps, and planning constraints demand sharper strategy, from joint and several agreements to mixing professionals with students to reduce voids.

Money and mechanics get a reboot too. Annual rent increases must run through Section 13 with defined notice periods. Advance rent requirements are curbed, while guarantors and insurance‑backed options step in for international or credit‑thin applicants. Discrimination against families and benefits claimants is out; affordability criteria, fairly applied, keep you compliant. Pet requests shift to case‑by‑case judgment, with property suitability and impact on other occupants as key tests. On enforcement, fines rise and rent repayment orders stretch to 24 months. From late 2026, the landlord database arrives, with safety certificates, property details, and public access to enforcement history—nudging the market toward transparency and professional standards.

We also look ahead: a private‑sector Decent Homes Standard, updated HHSRS rules, damp and mold timeframes, and the likely EPC C requirement by 2030. The path is clear even if dates slide. Our take: tighten your systems, audit compliance, price fairly with evidence, and communicate clearly. If management admin is eating your week, consider professional help; your time has value. If your portfolio leans heavily on marginal HMOs, model family lets in strong locations where tenants stay longer and voids shrink. Want the immediate p

Predictable income beats perfect projections, especially when the rules of renting keep shifting. We open up about why we’ve leaned into supported living and social housing partnerships, and how landlords are securing steady, often market-level rents with far less day-to-day management. If you’ve felt the stress of patchy bookings or tenant turnover, this is a practical roadmap to swap volatility for clarity while doing work that matters.

We break down the mechanics of fully repairing and insuring (FRI) leases, where vetted providers take on maintenance and insurance responsibilities, often handling adaptations for residents with disabilities and returning properties to standard at lease end. You’ll hear how bungalows, family homes, and even blocks of flats can slot into supported living schemes across the UK, and why transparency with lenders and insurers is the non-negotiable foundation for long-term success.

No properties yet? We outline a back-to-back leasing approach that mirrors rent-to-rent while aligning with charities and care providers. By disclosing use, structuring compliant contracts, and matching the right assets to local demand, operators can create a sustainable margin without managing nightly stays. We also share how developers and portfolio landlords can phase units into supported living as tenancies expire, turning uncertainty into multi-year agreements.

Beyond the numbers, there’s real impact: safe homes for people leaving tough situations, pathways to independence for residents with additional needs, and a business model that rewards consistency and care. Want to explore whether your property fits or how to start as an operator.

We unpack the most common landlord questions from forums and give clear, practical answers you can evidence. From who chooses the tenant to EPC rumors, deposit pitfalls, and rent rises, we share what to do, what to document, and what to avoid.

• landlord retains final say on tenant selection, no discrimination, consistent affordability criteria
• provide and certify safe cooking facilities, control installation, document compliance
• meter photos and timely notifications prevent liability for outgoing tenants’ utilities
• smoke and CO alarms must be restored promptly once notified, evidence all actions
• protect deposits within 30 days or face one to three times penalties per breach
• insured vs custodial deposit schemes, control versus simplicity trade-offs
• EPC only required when marketing, plan low-cost upgrades, watch 2030 policy shifts
• maintain gas safety during possession efforts, record all access attempts
• serve notices via email if permitted, plus hand delivery with timestamped photos
• raise rents annually with Section 13 and comparables, avoid painful catch-up jumps
• rent guarantee insurance covers arrears and legal costs, claim before 30 days, not retrospective
