4/6/24 – The Renters’ Reform Bill. 

Many of you may have been following news in recent Months regarding the Renters’ Reform Bill and its passage through Parliament.  The proposals would have (amongst other measures) abolished Section 21 Notices, along with fixed-term tenancies.

With the announcement of a General Election on July 4th, the Bill did not pass into law.  However, it is almost certain that, whatever the outcome of the election, the Bill will be revived in some form.  As some of you may know, we had already started making some preparations in regards to the Bill; which we will continue to do to make any transition as seamless as possible for all parties when changes are made.

You can find out more about what was proposed in the Bill here.

19/9/24 - New Gas/Heating Engineers.

Please be advised that we are now using a local company "Berkshire Heat" for all of our gas and heating work, including Annual Gas Safety Inspections.

They will contact tenants directly when the gas safety check for a property is due.
