Renters Rights investor pack checker
Interactive English rental-deal checklist for sourcers packaging investor packs after Renters Rights Act changes. Covers tenancy shape, information sheet evidence, rent assumptions, rent increases, possession and exit risk, pets, discriminatory criteria, and enforcement exposure. Use it as a quick screen before saving live deals in the Deal Pipeline.
Calculation formula and denominator
Items are classified by current legal state and evidence status; missing evidence is reported rather than converted into a false compliance score.
How to Use This Checklist
- Check tenancy shape and whether the pack relies on old fixed-term AST or Section 21 assumptions.
- Check rent advertising, upfront rent, and future rent increase assumptions.
- Check possession and exit timing assumptions, especially sale, move-in, arrears, and antisocial behaviour narratives.
- Check tenant-rights exposure such as pets, benefits/children criteria, enforcement, and rent repayment order risk.
- Link critical gaps back to evidence in the investor pack.
Worked example
For an English assured tenancy after 1 May 2026, record periodic tenancy, rent-increase and possession assumptions separately and attach current guidance.
