Why landlords are worried
- Possession routes changing
- Rent increases becoming more formal
- Higher enforcement and penalty exposure
- More pressure to evidence fair practice
What we recommend
- Audit current tenancies and certificates
- Stop informal processes that create risk
- Use clear notices and documented rent discussions
- Decide if self-managing still makes sense
This is practical guidance, not personal legal advice. For complex possession scenarios, take legal advice alongside your agent.
