ARL response to the Renters’ Rights Bill second reading   Certainty of regulation is essential to attract institutional investment to deliver the good quality rental stock which is in such great demand. Therefore, the ARL welcomes the progression of the Renters’ Rights Bill and its second reading this week.    Whilst welcoming any legislation that will improve the rental experience and support the professionalisation of the rental sector, the ARL calls on the Government to recognise that the BTR sector already delivers, and in many cases exceeds, the outputs which the Bill is designed to deliver.    The ARL is concerned however about the impact of abolishing fixed term assured tenancies and the proposal to move to periodic assured tenancies. The ARL’s concerns also remain around the ability of the courts, in their present state, to deal with the increased workload that will be created without Section 21. Whilst the ARL supports the abolition of Section 21, we continue to call for court improvements ahead of legislation being passed.   For the full ARL response: https://lnkd.in/d89mt5VJ
