Rental Disputes at Tribunals Rise Sharply After Renters Rights Act
Legal experts are increasingly concerned about the growing number of rental disputes reaching property tribunals since the Renters Rights Act came into effect this year. Letting agency Hamptons reports that property tribunals made 166 market rent decisions in July, compared to 44 in July 2025.
This increase in tribunal cases is notable for UK letting agents and inventory clerks, as it may signal a shift in how rental disagreements are being resolved following recent legislative changes.
