The Renters' Rights Act took effect in England on 1 May 2026. Assured Shorthold Tenancies abolished, Section 21 gone, every notice and template rewritten. The Act also extends limited anti-discrimination provisions to Wales from 1 June 2026. We rebuilt the template shop for all four UK jurisdictions.

Why we built this

Many template sites still sell pre-reform paperwork. We rebuilt every document against the new Act, from clause one, and ship them with a dated footer so you can prove what you served, and when.

Drafted in-house, reviewed against five UK statutes, updated whenever Westminster moves. One purchase, free re-issued download links any time, free updates for as long as your account exists.

Four UK nations, one login

Four nations. Four matched catalogues.

Portfolio across the border? We ship matched, reviewed catalogues for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, each updated separately when that jurisdiction's law changes.

How LetSafe compares

Cheaper than a law firm. Updated for the Renters' Rights Act, with a review date on every page.

We're not trying to replace a solicitor for a dispute. We're replacing the £400 retainer you didn't want to pay for a tenancy agreement a paralegal filled in from a template anyway.

Frequently asked

Questions landlords ask.

Can't find your answer here? See all FAQs or email us, we reply within one working day.

01What is LetSafe UK?
+

LetSafe UK publishes landlord document templates for England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. Every template is reviewed against the Renters' Rights Act 2025 and the legislation for its jurisdiction. We are not a letting agent or a law firm. We give you the paperwork to run your lets properly yourself.

02Can't I get this free on GOV.UK?
+

Partly, yes. Some prescribed forms, such as Form 4A for rent increases, are free on GOV.UK and we will always tell you so. GOV.UK sets out the rules. It does not give you a ready-to-use tenancy agreement, a guarantor agreement or a deposit deduction pack. That is the gap we fill.

03How much does it cost?
+

Single templates start at £9. Bundles such as the New Landlord Starter Pack are £49. Every purchase is a one-off payment. There is no subscription and nothing renews automatically.

04Can I get a refund?
+

Yes. Email richard@letsafeuk.co.uk within 14 days of your purchase if the template is wrong for your situation, unfit for purpose, or not what you expected, and we will refund you in full. No form, no small-print excuse. Your Consumer Rights Act 2015 rights remain unaffected.

05What happened on 1 May 2026?
+

Phase 1 of the Renters' Rights Act 2025 came into force in England on 1 May 2026. Assured Shorthold Tenancies (including Section 21) were abolished and replaced by periodic Assured Tenancies. English ASTs in existence on 30 April 2026 converted automatically on 1 May 2026, subject to the Act's transitional provisions and excluded categories (resident landlords, lets to companies, certain student lets, holiday lets, long leases over 7 years, supported accommodation). Our Transition Pack (LS-E-130) walks you through what this means for your portfolio.

06I only have one property. Is it worth it?
+

Yes. One invalid notice or unprotected deposit can cost far more than a template. Most single-property landlords start with the New Landlord Starter Pack.
