Unlawful entry is a problem 🤬 and currently it is the 2nd most common issue reported by tenants during our survey! Under the Protection from Eviction Act 1977 and the common law right to quiet enjoyment, a landlord or agent must: 👉 Give at least 24 hours’ written notice before entering a tenant’s home (except in emergencies like a gas leak or fire). 👉 Visit only at reasonable times, unless the tenant agrees otherwise. 👉 Respect the tenant’s right to live in the property without interference. It is illegal for a landlord or agent to enter a rental property without proper notice or consent outside emergencies. #TheTenantProject #UnlawfulEntry #Renting #PrivateRenting #RentersRights

A survey from Generation Rent UK revealed that as many as 1 in 4 tenants struggle to get their full deposit back from their old landlord, whilst experiencing unreasonable deductions 🤯 Common reasons for renters not to dispute deposit deductions included: ⚠ not being aware of their rights (18%) ⚠ a fear that it would take too long (13%) ⚠ not thinking they had enough evidence (11%) More worryingly still, 18% of respondents could not dispute their claims because their landlord had broken the law by not protecting their deposit.

The absolute worst attitude a landlord can have, "my house, my rules". We've seen it so many times, tenants have heard it countless times. Rogue landlords break the law too often. It has to stop. #RogueLandlords #TheTenantProject #TenantAngels #RentersRights #TenantsRights

The shambles of housing and the private rental sector has nothing to do with the lack of community in this country - does it, Keir?

If only people weren't having to move so often to try and beat rent increases and affordability crisis🤷

⚠️ ATTENTION TENANTS ⚠️ Rogue landlords and letting agents break the law every day, laws that have been around for years and yet most of them get away with it. Why? Partly because some tenants aren't aware of their rights and the laws in place to protect them. Or they have a genuine fear of retaliation. Yet the main reason is poor enforcement and lack of meaningful consequence. A rogue landlord or letting agent might be fined by the council if the local authority has the time, resources, and willingness to act. Yet, it's rare. But the tenant? They’re often left with nothing. No compensation. No apology. No legal support. Just stress, financial loss, health problems, and the ongoing fear of retaliation or eviction. We need to push for a better way but first we need your help to demonstrate the scale of the problem. We need tenants to share their experiences anonymously. Tick a few boxes, add an anonymous comment if you wish and let us collect the data that shows just how widespread this issue is. Here are the links: Our Mission: https://thetenantproject.org/our-mission/ Take the Survey: https://thetenantproject.org/take-the-survey/ Live Results: https://thetenantproject.org/live-survey-results/ Info for Landlords: https://thetenantproject.org/landlords/ Our campaign is targeting the rogue landlords and agents that blatantly break existing housing laws on a regular basis. Not the decent landlords who provide safe homes and follow the rules. We're not asking for new laws and red tape, we're asking for the existing laws to actually work! Good tenants (and good landlords) deserve better! #TheTenantProject #TenantRights #Renting #Housing #Law #TenantAngels

It's simple, if rogue landlords and agents break the law which causes the tenant stress, financial loss or health issues, we need consequences.

We're not asking for new laws. We're asking for the existing laws to carry some weight #TheTenantProject #TenantsRights

Yesterday, we quietly launched The Tenant Project. ❌ No ads. ❌ No big push. ✅ Just a soft launch, shared in a few groups. And already, within 24 hours, tenants have reported 67 separate legal breaches by rogue landlords and letting agents. 67 times the law was broken. 67 times tenants were left to live with no gas safety, no EPC, dangerous disrepair, illegal fees, harassment, or unfair eviction - and almost no consequences. This isn’t about one unlucky tenant. This is a pattern. A system that fails people over and over. We launched The Tenant Project to collect these stories, turn them into a national report, and push for proper enforcement and clear penalties - so that when the law is broken, tenants have real power to do something about it. We're not pushing for new laws, we're campaigning to make the laws we already have... matter. If you’ve experienced this, or know someone who has, please take two minutes to share your story by clicking the link in our bio. We’re just getting started. And the stories we’re hearing already are exactly why this work matters. #TenantsRights #TheTenantProject #TenantAngels
