Understanding the Renters' Rights Act 2026

 

The Renters' Rights Act 2026 introduces some of the biggest changes to renting in England in a generation. Whether you're living in a shared student house, private flat, or purpose-built student accommodation, it's important to understand how these new rules could affect your tenancy, your rights, and your responsibilities.

To help students navigate the changes, we've created a clear and practical guide that breaks down everything you need to know. From the end of no-fault evictions and the move to rolling tenancies, to rent increases, housing standards, and new dispute resolution systems, this booklet explains the key changes.

Inside, you'll find information on who is affected, what protections are being introduced, common misunderstandings to avoid, and what steps you should take before signing your next tenancy agreement.
