Landlord Protection UK

✨ Don't let your landlord take advantage of you. Take back your rights as a tenant now.

As rent prices start to go up again and the housing market goes back to normal, it's more important than ever to understand your rights as a tenant. Landlords will do everything in their power to make money, including keeping your security deposit, avoiding paying for repairs, or evicting you even when it's illegal to do so.

What are my rights as a tenant? (UK)

  • live in a property that’s safe and in a good state of repair

  • have your deposit returned when the tenancy ends - and in some circumstances have your deposit protected

  • challenge excessively high charges

  • and more

How can you solve the problem on your own?
