Letting your property with us

Managing a rental property involves much more than finding a tenant. From preparing a property for the rental market and arranging viewings to keeping up with reforms to legislation and responding to maintenance issues, there are many responsibilities for landlords to consider.

Our property management services in Nottingham can provide an extra pair of hands, whether you own your first rental property or are building a larger portfolio.

We can support landlords with the practical aspects of letting and managing a property, helping to make the process as simple and efficient as possible. Our experienced team can also help you understand your responsibilities as a landlord and keep up to date with important changes affecting the private rented sector.

 

Changes to the Renter’s Rights Act

The Renters’ Rights Act 2025 has introduced the most significant changes to the private rented sector in England for a generation. The first phase of reforms came into effect on 1 May 2026 and we’re here to help landlords and letting agents understand and change to reflect the new rules.

One of the most significant changes is the abolition of Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions. New and most existing private rented tenancies have also moved to an assured periodic tenancy structure, meaning they no longer operate as traditional fixed-term assured shorthold tenancies.

For landlords, keeping up with these changes is an important part of successfully managing a rental property.

 

Renter’s Rights Act: What you need to know

Some of the key changes landlords and tenants should be aware of include:

  • Section 21 ‘no-fault’ evictions have ended for private rented sector tenancies in England. Landlords must use a valid possession ground where they need to recover a property.
  • Most private rented tenancies are now assured periodic tenancies, rather than fixed-term assured shorthold tenancies.
  • Rent increases are subject to new rules, including restrictions on how frequently they can be made.
  • Rental bidding practices have changed, with landlords required to stick to the advertised rent.
  • Additional reforms are being introduced in phases from late 2026.

The legislation is detailed and the requirements can vary depending on the circumstances of a tenancy. For the latest government guidance, landlords and tenants should refer to the official Renters’ Rights Act information.

For landlords who would rather have experienced professionals helping them navigate the lettings process, working with an established local letting agency can provide valuable support.
