To support landlords and tenants across the Isle of Wight during one of the biggest changes in rental legislation in years, Red Squirrel Property Shop is hosting a dedicated Renters Reform Information Evening on 15th January.
This event is designed to give a clear, practical and local explanation of the changes, without the scaremongering or confusion that often comes from national news.
During the session, we’ll break down:
• What the Renters Reform Bill actually includes
Translated into plain English
• What is not changing
Important for landlords to understand, no, you’re not losing all your rights
• Section 21: What’s happening and when
Why it isn’t disappearing immediately
How the courts must be reformed first
What this means for existing tenancies
• New or updated grounds for possession
How landlords can still regain their property
What evidence may be required
How this affects long-term planning
• Property standards & compliance expectations
What constitutes a compliant rental
Common mistakes we see on the Island
How to protect yourself from future issues
• Practical steps to prepare in 2024–25
Templates, processes and communication tips
How our management team can support you
• Open Q&A
Bring your questions, we’ll address as many as possible with real, local examples.
This is a genuinely helpful, no-pressure, no-jargon session designed to support both landlords and tenants with real information they can use straight away.
Red Squirrel customers can attend for free. Simply book a space! Non-customers are welcome for a small ticket price.
The event will be held at GG’s Bar & Restaurant on 15th January, between 18:30-21:00.
