Your rights in plain English

What changed on 1 May 2026.

Six protections every tenant in England now has — and can use today.

No more no-fault evictions

Section 21 is abolished. Your landlord can only ask you to leave for reasons listed under Section 8 — family moving in, selling, or serious rent arrears.

One rent rise per year

Rent can only go up once every 12 months. Your landlord must give at least 2 months' written notice using the official Form 4.

Pets harder to refuse

Landlords must have a genuine reason to refuse a pet. Blanket 'no pets' clauses in contracts are now unenforceable.

No upfront rent demands

Asking for more than one month's rent in advance when you start a tenancy is now illegal.

Benefit discrimination banned

Refusing a tenancy because someone receives Universal Credit or housing benefit is now a criminal offence.

Free route to redress

Every landlord must register with the PRS Ombudsman. If they break the rules, you can escalate for free.
