Navigating the Renters (Reform) Bill with Ashtons: Expert Guidance for Landlords

Ashtons is here to provide you with further insights into the Renters (Reform) Bill, focusing on the transition to periodic tenancies and the enhanced grounds for eviction. We understand that these changes may seem daunting, which is why we encourage you to take advantage of our professional management service. With our expertise and support, you can confidently navigate the new legislation and overcome the challenges it presents.

Transition to Periodic Tenancies: Stability and Confidence

The Renters (Reform) Bill brings about a significant shift by abolishing Section 21 'no fault' evictions and transitioning tenancies to a rolling periodic state. This change offers both landlords and tenants greater stability and confidence in their rental arrangements. Instead of fixed-term tenancies abruptly ending, they will automatically roll over into periodic tenancies, ensuring continued occupancy and reduced uncertainty.

Enhanced Grounds for Eviction: Empowering Landlords

The Renters (Reform) Bill introduces enhanced grounds for eviction, striking a fair balance between landlords' rights and the protection of tenants. These grounds provide a comprehensive framework that allows you to regain possession of your property under specific circumstances.

1. Selling the Property

If you need to sell your property, rest assured that the Renters (Reform) Bill acknowledges your right to regain possession. Ashtons' management service is here to guide you through the process, ensuring that you understand the legal requirements and facilitating a smooth transition to meet your selling objectives.

2. Close Family Member Moving In

We understand that family dynamics can change, and the Renters (Reform) Bill recognizes the importance of accommodating close family members in your property. If a family member wishes to move in, you have the right to regain possession. Ashtons will provide you with the necessary guidance and support to navigate this aspect responsibly and in compliance with the new legislation.

3. Addressing Tenant Misconduct

Dealing with tenant misconduct can be challenging, but the Renters (Reform) Bill includes provisions to address anti-social behaviour and repeated rent arrears. The enhanced grounds for eviction empower you to repossess your property in such cases. Ashtons understands the importance of maintaining a harmonious living environment and ensuring a consistent rental income. We're here to assist you in navigating these situations effectively.
