Previously known as the Renters Reform Bill under the Conservative government, Labour<\/a> has made a few changes to the new Renters Rights Bill before resubmitting it to Parliament. It will now move through the usual pathways before being made into law, meaning some aspects of the bill may still change.<\/p>\n At the moment, it is widely expected to come into force no later than October next year, but there is a chance it could move more quickly than this and be enacted by next summer.<\/p>\n It contains some potentially big changes for both the social and the private rented sector, but there is also some misinformation on what the Renters Rights Bill<\/a> is actually proposing. In essence, the focus of the bill is on improving standards and rights for tenants, with some of the legislation aimed at rooting out poor landlords and homes.<\/p>\n Within the private rented sector, there is plenty of support for many of the proposals contained in the bill. However, there are also concerns on the timing and implementation of some of the changes, with the government urged to make the sector more, rather than less, enticing to landlords<\/a> in order to ensure tenants aren’t left with an even greater shortage of homes.<\/p>\n As mentioned above, with several steps left before the Renters Rights Bill is passed as law, aspects of it may still change between now and then.<\/p>\n But in a bid to prevent the spread of misinformation on the subject, landlord body Propertymark has looked more deeply into five aspects of the bill in order to debunk some of the myths that have been circulating.<\/p>\n As the Renters Rights Bill progresses through Parliament, we will keep you updated on any new developments that could affect property investors, landlords or tenants.
