The purpose of the PRT is to improve security, stability and predictability for tenants and provide safeguards for landlords. PRT tenancies are open-ended, meaning no initial fixed-term, and ‘no fault’ evictions have been abolished so tenants can only be evicted for specific wrongdoing.
PRT rent levels can only be increased once in 12 months.
The process for ending tenancies has been simplified; tenants are required to give 28 days’ notice regardless of how long they have been in the property.
