Renting Homes Wales

The Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016, which came into force on 1 December 2022, introduced the most significant reform of Welsh housing law in decades. The Act fundamentally changed how residential tenancies operate in Wales, including the structure of tenancy agreements – now known as occupation contracts, the way notices must be served, and the legal responsibilities of landlords and letting agents. 

Understanding and complying with these changes is essential to avoid invalid notices, disputes, or enforcement action.
