Preparing for rental reform: why prescribed information still counts
Propertymark works to ensure our members understand the full extent of their legal obligations, and for letting agents this includes tenancy deposit protection. The Siddeeq v Alaian court case highlighted concerns about how and when prescribed information must be served, and with the implementation of the Renters’ Rights Bill on the horizon, it’s a relevant reminder that agents must be precise and compliant when dealing with tenancy deposits in England and Wales.
Material Information guidance withdrawn as the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act takes over
The property sector has seen a significant regulatory shift with the quiet withdrawal of the National Trading Standards Estate and Letting Agency Team (NTSELAT) Material Information Guidance. This change coincides with the enforcement of the Digital Markets, Competition and Consumers Act (DMCC Act) on 6 April 2025 which supersedes the Consumer Protection from Unfair Trading Regulations 2008 (CPRs) and has shifted power over consumer protections to the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA).
Eviction delays spark urgent call for High Court enforcement option
Property agents and landlords across England and Wales are increasingly facing prolonged delays when attempting to evict problem tenants—an issue being described as a postcode lottery due to the inconsistent and regionally varied response times within the County Court system. In response, the High Court Enforcement Officers Association (HCEOA), in partnership with Propertymark and other stakeholders, have launched a campaign to speed up possessions, calling on landlords to consider High Court enforcement as a more efficient solution in the most severely affected areas.
UK Government pursues stronger powers to tackle tax non-compliance
Plans are afoot to strengthen HMRC (HM Revenue and Customs) to act quickly and robustly against professional tax advisers who help clients avoid paying the correct tax. Propertymark welcomes this because it aligns with our calls to the Treasury, and we support HMRC’s ambition to ensure the financial sector upholds the highest standards and integrity of the tax system.
