If you read our recent guide on the upcoming rental reforms, you will know that the biggest changes to the private rented sector in a generation are just around the corner. Phase 1 of the Renters' Rights Act comes into effect on 1 May 2026, and for landlords, the time to prepare is now, not next month.
April is the final window for landlords in England to prepare for the first phase of the Renters’ Rights Act. With the new tenancy regime starting on 1 May 2026, now is the time to review paperwork, processes and whether self-management still feels realistic.
For tenants, April is a useful point to pause and plan. With rents still rising across the UK and the first phase of rental reform approaching in England, this is a good time to review your budget, renewal options and next move.
More households are reassessing space in early 2026. If your home feels tighter than it once did, this spring may offer the right conditions to move up.
