Section 21 is gone. So is the tenancy type most of your paperwork assumes.
This is not a deadline coming. It commenced on 1 May 2026. Assured shorthold and fixed-term tenancies were abolished, every affected tenancy became periodic, and possession moved to the amended section 8 grounds. Non-compliance is present tense.

What we will not claim.
- That buying a pack makes you compliant. It gives you the correct position and the documents; the work is still yours.
- That we can guarantee an outcome in a possession claim. Nobody can, and an agent who says otherwise is selling something worse than nothing.
- That this is legal advice. It is a compliance product built on the primary legislation and the commencement order, both named on this page.

Questions we get asked
Is the Renters' Rights Act actually in force?
Yes. Chapter 1 of Part 1 commenced on 1 May 2026 under SI 2026/421. Assured shorthold and fixed-term tenancies were abolished on that date and all such tenancies are now assured periodic tenancies. Section 21 no-fault eviction went with them. This is not a deadline approaching — it happened.
What changed on the day?
Every affected tenancy became periodic, section 21 stopped being available, and possession now runs through the amended section 8 grounds. Rent increases run through section 13. Your existing agreements, notices and processes were drafted for a regime that no longer exists.
We use a template agreement from our network. Is it fine?
Check its date and whether it drafts on the amended basis. A fixed-term AST issued after 1 May 2026 is drafting a tenancy type that cannot exist.
What does the free check cover?
It scores your agency against the areas the Act actually changed — agreements, notices, possession grounds, rent increases, and the processes around them — and gives you a banded result with the specific gaps listed.
What is the difference between the £125 pack and the £1,250 licence?
The £125 Compliance Playbook is for an agency putting its own house in order. The £1,250 white-label licence is for a firm that wants to deliver RRA compliance to its own clients under its own brand, with full reseller rights.
Does buying this make us compliant?
No, and be suspicious of anyone who says it does. It gives you the correct current position, the documents drafted on the amended basis, and a list of what to fix. Doing the fixing is still yours.
