Petition Action

Make the lettings industry ethical and fairer for all!

Petition Details

The lettings industry is letting people down! Over 12 million people now rent their home privately, with over 2 million landlords, so agents impact many people's lives. Extortionate and hidden fees are one big example, but there are many other unethical practices that we think should be eliminated.

Additional Information

We support the Government’s plans to tackle criminal rogue agents (and landlords) in the current Housing Bill, but we think that much more should be done. And can easily be done!

This petition aims to influence national legislation, based on our Ethical Lettings Pledge (www.theethicallettingspledge.co.uk). This will benefit landlords, tenants, and local communities. It’s time for change! Please sign-up to the Pledge, and this petition, and you'll be helping millions of people! Thank-you.

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

We're not sure what action you would like the UK Government or Parliament to take.

You could start a new petition calling on Parliament to make a specific change to the law.
