Renters' Rights Bill: overview and impact
Learn about how the Renters’ Rights Bill will reform the private rented sector in England.
Summary
The Renters’ Rights Bill is set to reform the private housing sector by introducing stronger protections for private tenants against eviction, new rules for private landlords and improved housing standards.
We’ll cover how the Renters’ Rights Bill will convert all current assured shorthold tenancies (ASTs) to periodic assured tenancies after a set date.
You’ll learn about the new grounds for possession and notice periods, the ban of section 21 notices and the new housing standards for the private rented sector.
