Open-Ended Tenancies
Fixed-term ASTs replaced by open-ended periodic tenancies - impossible to plan with certainty.
Rent Control Regulations
New restrictions on rent increases - you may be unable to raise rents in line with your mortgage payments.
Mandatory Landlord Register
All English landlords required to join a national register - added compliance obligations and regulatory burden.
