Attleborough Landlords - Important Update on Tenant Fees (1 min.Read)

A 1 minute read to help landlords get things right.

It’s worth noting that the law has just changed on this. A year ago, the English Government introduced a ban on tenant fees on all new tenancies.
As part of this legislation, a one-year transition period covering pre-existing tenancies was granted.
This period has now finished meaning that tenant fees – regardless of when the contract was signed – cannot be charged.
Fees that fall into this category include charges for renewing a tenancy agreement, guarantor requests or credit checks.
 If you have a tenancy agreement that pre-dates June 2019, contact us for advice to ensure you’re doing the right thing.
Breach the law, and you face a £5,000 fine for a first offence. Get caught again within five years, and it’s a criminal offence and an unlimited fine.
