Given the Renters Reform Bill's provisions around pets, what are the exact requirements landlords must follow when a tenant requests a pet, and what stipulations can I legally include in a tenancy agreement to protect my property?
Quick Answer
The Renters' Rights Bill will establish pet ownership with consent as the default, requiring landlords not to unreasonably refuse. Landlords must respond to requests within 28 days and can stipulate pet insurance. Section 21 abolition means periodic tenancies will be the norm.
