Six-year tenancies will shake-up the rental market - but will it be for better or worse?

"Cabinet approves rent reform legislation in bid to end no-fault evictions and increase supply of properties"

"The Cabinet has approved controversial rent reform legislation, but what do the new rules mean for tenants and landlords? And will the reforms deliver on the Government's promise to increase the number of rental properties?"

"The Cabinet has approved legislation that will shake up the rules on rents and tenancies."

Cabinet approval launches rent reform measures intended to end no-fault evictions and increase the supply of rental properties. The legislation alters rules on rents and tenancies to introduce stronger tenant protections against arbitrary eviction while seeking to maintain incentives for landlords to offer properties. The reforms target rental affordability, stability, and housing supply by changing how rents, tenancy durations, and eviction grounds are regulated. The practical impact will depend on the detailed provisions, implementation timelines, and enforcement mechanisms that follow parliamentary consideration and rollout.
