Landlords will no longer be able to use rent review provisions under the tenancy agreement but will have to follow the s13 statutory procedure allowing rent increases only once a year to market prices, with an increased 2 month notice period. Tenants will have the ability to challenge the rent through the First Tier Property Tribunal if they believe it to be excessive.
