Investor Analysis

A survey of over 1,100 tenants reveals that only 32% believe their landlord or managing agent is fully compliant with the Renters' Rights Act, with 59% reporting tenancy agreements have not been updated and 91% seeing no noticeable change since the Act came into force. This signals a widespread compliance gap with material legal and reputational risk for landlords and property managers.

Investor Relevance

Landlords and property managers face direct legal exposure if non-compliance with the Renters' Rights Act goes unaddressed — this data signals that enforcement risk is live and that many operators have not yet adapted, making compliance review an urgent operational priority rather than a future consideration.
