Landlords should expect invitations to Renters Rights Bill teach-ins shortly – from letting agents.
Propertymark is launching a roadshow to help agents and landlords come to terms with the Renters Rights Bill, which returns to Parliament today.
Agents are invited to spread the word and demonstrate leadership to their clients by inviting landlords to come along.
The Bill is set to overhaul key areas of tenancy law, landlord responsibilities, and tenant rights. While the final timeline for implementation remains unconfirmed, the direction of change is clear, and Propertymark is calling on agents not to delay.
Propertymark’s nationwide Renters’ Rights Bill Roadshow is a series of free, in-person events designed to give agents, landlords and property professionals the practical tools and clear guidance needed to prepare for the months ahead. It’s open to agents, their teams, and clients.
Each session includes policy briefings, panel debates, and a live Q&A, covering the full scope of the Bill and the practical steps needed for readiness.
Key topics include:
• Ending of Section 21 “no-fault” evictions and replacement possession grounds
• Transition to periodic tenancies and new notice periods
• Rent increase processes, evidence requirements, and timelines
• Rules on pets in rental properties
• Student lets and implications for seasonal turnover

Nathan Emerson, chief of Propertymark, comments: “The debate taking place in Parliament this Wednesday signals how close we are to meaningful legislative change. Agents must act now to ensure they understand what’s coming and how to manage both compliance and client expectations.
“Our roadshow gives professionals the opportunity to hear directly from experts, ask questions, and walk away better prepared for the future.
“Now is not the time to take a wait-and-see approach. This legislation is moving forward, and agents must lead the response. Our roadshow is a vital opportunity to get informed, prepared, and stay ahead of change.
“Agents play a vital role in guiding landlords through reform. By attending the roadshow with your clients, you can position yourself as the go-to source of reliable, up-to-date information.”
