The Renters’ Rights Act introduces major reform to the private rented sector, with significant implications for higher education institutions involved in student accommodation.
In this webinar, Bevan Brittan’s higher education and housing specialists, Sarah Orchard, Daniel Halstead, and Helen Taller, will outline the key changes under the Act and explore what they mean in practice for the sector. The session will focus on student tenancies, arrangements, emerging compliance risks and the practical steps higher education institutions should be taking now to prepare.
Key topics include:
- An overview of the Renters’ Rights Act and its implementation timeline
- Implications for student accommodation and purpose-built student housing
- Managing risk and compliance
- Practical actions to take away
