🚨 Renters’ Rights Act 2025 — NOW IN EFFECT

As of May 1st 2026, the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 reforms are now in force across the private rented sector.

A significant shift in how tenancies are structured and managed, including:

• The abolition of Section 21 “no-fault” evictions
• All tenancies transitioning to periodic agreements
• Stronger and more defined tenant protections
• More structured grounds required for possession
• Tighter framework around rent increases and challenges
• Enhanced compliance expectations for landlords and agents

For landlords, investors, and tenants. Understanding these changes is essential to staying compliant and protected.

At Gracewater, we’re tracking every update so you don’t have to.

The price you see isn’t always the price you pay.

Many buyers focus on the purchase price — but it’s the additional costs that often catch people off guard.

Here are three to keep in mind:

1️⃣ Stamp duty
One of the biggest upfront costs, and often underestimated.

2️⃣ Legal & survey fees
Essential for protecting your purchase — but they can quickly add up.

3️⃣ Service charge & ground rent
Ongoing costs that can significantly impact affordability, especially with flats.

Understanding the full cost puts you in a much stronger position when buying.

Most buyers underestimate at least one of these.

💬 Comment “BUY” and we’ll guide you through the process and costs involved.

The 3 biggest mistakes landlords make when renting out their property.

Many landlords lose time, money, and good tenants simply because of avoidable mistakes.

Here are three we see most often:

1️⃣ Incorrect pricing
Overpricing can leave your property sitting empty, while underpricing means leaving money on the table. Getting the right rental valuation is key.

2️⃣ Poor tenant screening
The wrong tenant can lead to missed rent, property damage, and costly legal issues. Proper referencing and checks are essential.

3️⃣ Not keeping up with regulations
Landlord regulations change constantly — from safety certificates to tenancy rules. Falling behind can lead to serious penalties.

Managing a rental property properly takes experience, time and the right processes.

If you’re a landlord and want advice on letting or managing your property, feel free to get in touch.
