Can I still issue a valid Section 21 notice *today* (October 2023) if my tenancy agreement started before the Renters (Reform) Bill is enacted, and if so, what are the absolute critical checks I MUST complete to ensure its legality and prevent it from being thrown out by a court for a technicality?
Quick Answer
Yes, Section 21 notices are still valid today (Oct 2023) for existing tenancies, but require stringent compliance with documentation, deposit protection, and notice periods to be legally enforceable.
About This Topic
Landlords can still issue Section 21 notices in Oct 2023 for existing UK tenancies. Ensure valid EPC, Gas Safety Certificate, deposit protection, and Form 6a are all correctly served to prevent invalidation.
