Landlord’s Forum will offer advice ahead of Renters’ Rights Act coming into force
19/03/2026

There will be a host of experts on hand at the free-to-attend event
A new Renters’ Rights Act is coming into force at the start of May and with that in mind a Landlords’ Forum has been organised for local landlords and property professionals.
The event has been set up by Cherwell District Council in partnership with the National Residential Landlords Association and is a chance to hear from experts about what landlords need to do to comply with the rules.
The act aims to make the rental system more stable, safer, and easier to understand, with key changes, including the end to no-fault evictions and fairer rent rules.
The Landlords’ Forum will be held on Thursday, April 2 in the council chamber at Castle Quay.
The council’s environmental protection and enforcement team will be present, with useful tips on dealing with nuisance, antisocial behaviour, and options for pest control.
Councillor Nick Cotter, Portfolio Holder for Housing, said: “The Renters’ Rights Act introduces some very welcome changes to renting. It will help people feel more secure in their homes and bring forward a clear set of rules to make sure every rented property is safe, warm and in good repair.
“We are clear about the value a well-run private rented sector brings to our communities, so it’s only right that we are proactive about helping local landlords get up to speed on the new rules.
“The Landlords’ Forum is free of charge and a really informative event with a host of experts on hand and the opportunity for attendees to ask questions and connect with fellow landlords.”
The meeting, from 5.50pm, can be attended in person, or virtually by emailing [email protected].
