PIMS New DOCUMENT NEW SECTIONS

7th May 2026

Renters Right now means Landlords and Letting Agents must change their working processes for everything has changed 

For over 15 Years the PIMS website and helpline has constantly been updated. The Renters Rights challenges are so radical we have re written the whole website and all the documents. We believe rent arrears shall be the biggest concern and the great risk is repair counter claims hence added this new document 
Before you issue a rent arrears letter: read Tenant Reporting Repairs Obligations Affirmed. Do not walk blind into a repair counterclaim trap.

So have a click around Your PIMS Renters Rights Journey and discover how the PIMS website can help you.

The best tip we will give you is print of our NEW Tenancy Agreement and read it - for  the Renters Rights Legislation puts performance demands on the Landlord - so clauses MUST be included or you can be fined and the fines are hefty up to £40,000


Councils across England and Wales have been funded by the government to the tune of £60 million in enforcing new rules on the PRS within the Act.

Richard Merrick of PIMS, says “We have updated the website with the all the information as we do not want members to be ordered to pay £7,000 per tenant and property which is just the start.
“We have over 15 years of experience to help members and to now protect them from the Renters’ Rights Act as it is simple and easy to understand with expertise telephone help 7 days a week for members, just read some of members comments to feel safe and protected.”
