Landlords: another major change is on the way!
The Government has confirmed that a new Private Rented Sector Property Register will begin rolling out across England from 15 December 2026.
Landlords will be required to register themselves and each of their rental properties, with an annual registration fee payable for each property.
Key things landlords need to know:
🟢Every rental property must be registered.
🔵Compliance documents — including EPCs, gas safety certificates and electrical certificates — will need to be uploaded.
🟢Registration deadlines will be introduced region by region throughout 2027.
🔵Penalties for non-compliance are expected to range from £7,000 to £40,000.
🔵Properties cannot be marketed for rent unless there is an active registration in place.
