Are Your Renter's Rights Ready?
For serious or repeated breaches, councils can issue civil penalties without going to court.
Tenants can now pursue rent repayment orders covering up to 24 months — double the previous limit.
Breaches can cost up to £20,000 for every occupier, on top of any other penalty.
A mishandled deposit can trigger compensation of up to three times its value, and cost you the Section 8 route.
No-fault evictions have gone. Most possession routes now require longer notice and proper grounds.
Selective and HMO licensing rules sit on top of all of the above, and vary by borough.

Where we work
EXCELLENT Based on 452 reviews Posted on Google Mai12 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Hiten and George were able to get us the price for our property that we were happy with where other agencies said we needed to reduce. They organised many viewings for us very quickly and always in excellent communication. I felt like the advice that we had from them was so valuable and trusted. I would recommend them to anyone. Thank you Element Properties!Posted on Google Holly Dewsbury11 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Very efficient and professional - highly recommend!Posted on Google Xenoulla Xenophontos9 March 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Element Properties was the greatest support with renting my beloved family home. Josh and Danny's knowledge and wealth of experience is absolutely a 5 Star service. I would recommend Element Properties above anyone else, they are professional excellence in all they do, but also the kindness and authentic care for you and your home sets them far apart from anyone else. They are my FIRST choice and I strongly recommend them for anyone who is looking for 5 star support in this area. Thank you very much Josh and Danny.Posted on Google James Allsop23 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I can’t recommend the team at Element Properties highly enough for both letting and sales. Their market knowledge, hard work and ability to get the best results sets them apart from other estate agents.Posted on Google Nikolas Talaiporos23 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I came across a flat Element Properties posted on Zoopla. From the moment I expressed my interest Danny replied promptly and he was super supportive and transparent through the whole process! The viewing and the reference process were very smooth and hassle-free. Thank you and keep up the hard work!Posted on Google Jasmin Southgate16 February 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Danny and the team were so helpful with our move into our new home. Great communication and help throughout the entire processPosted on Google Angelica Di Battista31 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Element Properties & Co supported me and my family throughout the roller-coaster journey of selling our flat and buying a new home. It was a long process full of surprises, hiccups, ups and downs — but Element Properties, especially Hitan and George, guided us through it all with truly impeccable service. They were always available to resolve issues, answer our questions, and calm any concerns. Their help was invaluable when selling our flat, and their support was just as outstanding when purchasing our next property. They consistently ensured there were no delays, often stepping in where others in the chain fell short. I cannot recommend Element Properties highly enough to anyone looking to buy or sell. A genuinely five-star service!Posted on Google Avril Delaney29 January 2026Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Danny made our letting experience seamless, with excellent communication along the way. Would highly recommend Element.

Common questions
If your question is not here, ask on the call. We will give you a straight answer either way.
Yes. Ten minutes, by phone or at the property, with no fee and no obligation to move your management to us. You get the written plan whatever you decide.
Where your tenancy and paperwork stand under the current rules, what is missing, and what to do about it — ranked by urgency, in plain English. It comes back within 24 hours of the review.
On every new managed tenancy we cover the cost of your first twelve months of rent guarantee insurance, which typically runs between £240 and £500 depending on the rent. It is subject to the insurer's terms and to tenants passing referencing, and we will confirm exactly what the policy covers before you commit.
Yes, and mid-tenancy is often when it matters most. We audit what is in place, correct what we can, and tell you honestly where something cannot be undone.
The main changes are the end of Section 21 no-fault evictions, longer notice periods and stricter grounds for possession, a new process for rent increases, and tenancies that run periodically rather than for a fixed term. The penalties for getting any of it wrong also increased.
Through the statutory process, with the correct notice and the right evidence behind the figure. We review every managed tenancy on a cycle and tell you what the local comparables actually support — including when the answer is to leave it alone.
It depends on the borough and the property. Selective and HMO licensing schemes vary considerably across North and East London, and we will tell you which apply to yours as part of the review.
Marketing and letting, referencing, the tenancy paperwork, deposit handling, certificates and compliance, repairs and contractors, inspections, rent collection, arrears, renewals and rent reviews. You hear from us when it matters rather than when it breaks.
We chase it from day one rather than at the end of the month, keep you informed, and if it escalates we handle the notices and the process properly — which matters far more now that Section 21 has gone. This is also where the rent guarantee cover earns its keep.
Usually yes, subject to whatever notice your current agreement requires. We handle the handover — the keys, the deposit, the certificates and the introduction to your tenants.
