Landlord Advertising Guidance and Checklist -– Protect your Property and Tenancy Compliance

Landlords in England must ensure their property advertisements comply with the Renters’ Rights Act and Consumer Protection legislation. Failure to comply can result in financial penalties of up to £7,000 and further enforcement action.

Comprehensive Guidance

To support landlords, we have produced a Guidance Note and Checklist which provides a clear overview of the legal requirements for property listings. It covers:

• Required content and accurate property information 
• Restrictions on rental bidding and advance payments 
• Prohibitions on blanket bans for pets and families 
• Avoiding discriminatory language and practices 

Using these documents together ensures landlords maintain compliance with the Renters’ Rights Act and Consumer Protection legislation to avoid financial penalties and demonstrate a professional approach to property management.
