UK Renters Right Act: Landlord can’t evict tenants during 12 months protected period; Here’s when landlords can get possession of the property

The first phase of the Renters Right Act which came into effect from May 1, 2026 in England, rolled out a bunch of measures aimed at benefiting both tenants and landlords. This way, landlords can enjoy their properties without hassle, and tenants have a secure place to call home.

One of the major changes introduced by the Renters’ Right Act is that ‘no fault’ eviction notices can no longer be used to evict tenants.
