Landlords can\u2019t refuse a tenant simply because they\u2019re on benefits or have children, and requests to keep a pet also can\u2019t be unreasonably refused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Rents are also affected, as followed (and in summary):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Rents can only be increased once a year and must be at market rate.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Tenants are able to challenge rent increases at the tribunal (for a \u00a347 fee).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Landlords can ask for no more than one month\u2019s rent in advance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bidding wars are banned.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>For many landlords this required changes to marketing and even rental contracts, but these should be in place by this point. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-housing-health-and-safety-rating-system-changes-to-how-landlords-can-check-properties\">Housing Health and Safety Rating System: Changes to how landlords can check properties<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/housing-health-and-safety-rating-system-hhsrs-landlord-and-agent-guide\/landlord-and-agent-guide-to-the-housing-health-and-safety-rating-system-hhsrs\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Housing Health and Safety Rating System (HHSRS)<\/a> is the tool councils use to judge whether a home is safe. It was updated on 23 June 2026, and this was its first real refresh since 2006. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We should be clear about what this is: a simplification, not a higher bar. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a landlord, your underlying duty to keep a property free of serious hazards hasn\u2019t changed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What has changed is that the list of hazards has been simplified from 29 to 21, the scoring has been made easier to follow, and\u2014most usefully for landlords\u2014there are now baseline indicators describing what \u2018good\u2019 looks like for each hazard. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You don\u2019t need to be a qualified inspector to use them. They double up as a handy checklist for self-auditing your own property before a council ever gets involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s worth getting familiar with those baselines now, because the HHSRS is also the tool that underpins the new Decent Homes Standard heading for private rentals\u2014of which more in a moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-awaab-s-law-what-it-means-for-private-landlords\">Awaab\u2019s Law: What it means for private landlords<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Awaab\u2019s Law deserves its own mention, if only because it\u2019s one of the clearest signals of where things are heading when it comes to managing property as a landlord or agent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s named after <a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Death_of_Awaab_Ishak\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Awaab Ishak<\/a>, the two-year-old who sadly died in 2020 after prolonged exposure to mould in his home\u2014an avoidable death that led to a media campaign to avoid the same happening again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It sets legally binding deadlines for landlords to investigate and fix serious hazards. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under Awaab&#8217;s Law, emergency hazards must be made safe within 24 hours, and significant damp and mould investigated within fixed timescales. Further phases through 2026 and 2027 widen it to cover more hazard types.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And for now, it applies only to social housing, for which it came into force on 27 October 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For private landlords, the Renters\u2019 Rights Act has set the groundwork to bring in similar rules\u2014but that\u2019s a later phase, and the timing is still being consulted on, so it isn\u2019t something you need to act on today. It will give tenants specific methods to complain to their landlord, before potentially escalating to a new Private Rented Sector Landlord Ombudsman (see below).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The smart, low-cost move is simply to tackle any damp or mould as soon as it\u2019s reported. It\u2019s cheaper than waiting for a deadline\u2014and as Awaab&#8217;s Law indicates, it could be a matter of life and death.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-private-rented-sector-database\">The Private Rented Sector Database<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>A few more things are coming, but won&#8217;t be here for several years. However, you should still read up on their requirements because they could affect things like property improvements moving forward, and therefore avoid expenditure later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From late 2026, the Private Rented Sector Database is being rolled out, which all landlords will need to register for. If they don&#8217;t then they could be subject to a \u00a37,000 penalty if they subsequently market or let a property, potentially rising to \u00a340,000 and criminal prosecution for repeated breaches or other serious offences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There&#8217;s three sides to the database. Understandably, much focus has been on the benefits for tenants, who will get better transparency, understanding of their rights, and easier ways to escalate issues to their local council or the new ombudsman (see below). They will also be able to see certain details related to offences committed by landlords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Landlords get a &#8220;one stop shop&#8221; (to quote the government), where they can learn about guidance and also learn about new and upcoming responsibilities. There will be a fee for registration that, the government says, will be &#8220;proportionate and good value&#8221;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And finally, councils will obviously get more transparency about privately rented properties, and who owns them. The private sector database will remove the need for the Database of Rogue Landlords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-private-rented-sector-landlord-ombudsman\">Private Rented Sector Landlord Ombudsman<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In addition to the database, every private landlord in England with assured or regulated tenancies will be legally required to sign-up to the Private Rented Sector Landlord Ombudsman\u2014including those who use a managing agent.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Ombudsman&#8217;s job is to give tenants a free, independent way to complain about a landlord\u2019s actions or behaviour, with binding powers to order an apology, information, remedial action or compensation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In practice, it\u2019s the escalation point that ties the other reforms together: if a tenant raises a hazard under Awaab\u2019s Law and isn\u2019t happy with the response, the Ombudsman is where that complaint can go next.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For landlords the duties are simple: register, stay a member while you\u2019re letting, and comply with its decisions. A small annual fee per property is expected. The penalties for not joining mirror those for the database (see above).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On timing, there\u2019s no confirmed date yet. The government has said it will launch as soon as possible and that landlords will be given notice and time to register, but it\u2019s expected to follow the database\u2014so likely in 2027.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For now, there\u2019s nothing to do beyond knowing it\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-decent-homes-standard\">The Decent Homes Standard<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Further out from everything discussed so far, the Decent Homes Standard is being extended to private rentals for the first time. This can be considered an effective continuation of Awaab&#8217;s Law.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It sets a baseline for a property being genuinely fit to live in\u2014free of the most serious hazards, in a reasonable state of repair, with reasonably modern facilities and a reasonable degree of warmth. The HHSRS mentioned earlier will be the tool used to measure the hazard part. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If a house doesn&#8217;t meet the Decent Homes Standard, the local council can take enforcement action and, again, penalties up to \u00a37,000 might be issued. Tenants or the council can also apply to the first-tier tribunal to reclaim rent. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But don&#8217;t panic. Current expectations put enforcement of the Decent Homes Standard some years away\u2014current proposals suggest a long lead-in period, but timelines are still being developed\u2014so there\u2019s no need to act today. It\u2019s more something to factor into longer-term plans for the likes of ageing kitchens, bathrooms, ventilation, and heating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-tax-change-for-landlords-mtd-for-income-tax\">The tax change for landlords: MTD for Income Tax<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the bit that often gets missed in media coverage for landlords.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alongside the housing changes, the way you report rental income to HMRC may have changed too, because of Making Tax Digital (MTD) for Income Tax.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ve covered this in depth already here on Sage Advice, so <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sage.com\/en-gb\/blog\/mtd-income-tax-landlords-need-to-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">take a look at our existing article<\/a> to get up to speed if this is the first you\u2019ve heard of it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This affects landlords if their qualifying income is over \u00a350,000, and the first deadline is approaching as of the date of publication of this article\u2014by 7 August 2026, you&#8217;ll need to make your first mandatory quarterly update to HMRC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Under MTD for Income Tax, you keep digital records and send HMRC a short update every quarter, then a final digital tax return at year end in place of the usual Self Assessment return. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s being phased in by income: from April 2027 landlords will need to follow the rules if qualifying income is over \u00a330,000; and from April 2028 if it\u2019s over \u00a320,000.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One trap worth flagging: the threshold is based on gross income\u2014your rent before any costs\u2014not your profit. So a landlord with high rents and a thin margin after mortgage interest can still be caught. (Properties held through a limited company are outside MTD for Income Tax entirely.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re reading this having missed a quarterly reporting deadline, then don&#8217;t panic\u2014there&#8217;s a first-year soft landing period, where there are no penalty points applied for late quarterly updates across the 2026\/27 tax year. However, the final digital tax return still falls under normal penalty rules.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Final thoughts<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>2026 asks more of private landlords, but none of it is unmanageable. Much of it is about clearer, fairer renting. The trick is to separate what\u2019s live now from what\u2019s still coming, but still get a few foundations in place so you&#8217;re ready in time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A few quick next steps: review your tenancy agreements and rent-increase process against the Renters\u2019 Rights Act. Use the new HHSRS baselines to self-check each property and deal with any damp or mould sooner rather than later. And look at your income against the MTD for Income Tax thresholds so you can get your records digital well before your deadlines, if required.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-frequently-asked-questions\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"schema-faq wp-block-yoast-faq-block\"><div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301479076\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Do private landlords have to use Making Tax Digital for Income Tax?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Many will. MTD for Income Tax applies to individual landlords based on gross income: from April 2026 if your combined self-employment and property income is over \u00a350,000, from April 2027 if it\u2019s over \u00a330,000, and from April 2028 if it\u2019s over \u00a320,000. Properties held in a limited company aren\u2019t included.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301493547\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Can landlords still use Section 21 to evict tenants in England?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">No. Section 21 \u2018no-fault\u2019 evictions ended in England on 1 May 2026 under the Renters\u2019 Rights Act. To regain your property you now need to rely on a valid ground under Section 8, such as serious rent arrears or anti-social behaviour.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301508201\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Is the HHSRS still in use after the June 2026 changes?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Yes. The HHSRS remains the system councils use to assess hazards in rented homes. The June 2026 update simplified it\u2014fewer hazards and clearer scoring\u2014rather than replacing it, and landlords\u2019 core duties are unchanged.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301523076\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Does Awaab\u2019s Law apply to private landlords?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Not yet. Awaab\u2019s Law currently applies only to social housing, where it has been in force since 27 October 2025. The Renters\u2019 Rights Act sets the groundwork to extend similar duties to the private rented sector, but that\u2019s a later phase and the timing is still subject to consultation. There\u2019s no date confirmed for private landlords, so the best move for now is to deal with any damp or mould promptly.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301541901\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Does Making Tax Digital apply to rental income under \u00a350,000?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">It will, in stages. The \u00a350,000 threshold applies from April 2026, dropping to \u00a330,000 from April 2027 and \u00a320,000 from April 2028. Because it\u2019s measured on gross rent (plus any self-employment income) before expenses, most landlords will be brought in by 2028.<\/p> <\/div> <div class=\"schema-faq-section\" id=\"faq-question-1782301556151\"><strong class=\"schema-faq-question\"><strong>Do landlords need to register with the Private Rented Sector Database?<\/strong><\/strong> <p class=\"schema-faq-answer\">Eventually, yes. The database is being rolled out from late 2026, and private landlords in England will need to register their details and properties, likely for a fee. It&#8217;s unlikely to be live everywhere immediately, so check for your area\u2019s start date via your council.<\/p> <\/div> <\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"single-cta\">\n\t<div class=\"single-cta__positioner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"single-cta__wrapper has-dark-background-color\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"single-cta__content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"single-cta__title h3\">Let the AI take the admin strain<\/h2>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"single-cta__description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><!-- wp:paragraph --><\/p>\n<p>Sage Sole Trader Free means Sage Copilot takes the admin off your plate\u2014so you can get back to the work that pays.
