Right to Rent

Clear guidance. A straightforward process.

At Sable and Stone Real Estate, we are committed to conducting the rental process professionally, responsibly and in accordance with applicable UK requirements.

For residential properties in England, landlords and letting agents are generally required to carry out Right to Rent checks before allowing an adult tenant to occupy a property. The purpose of these checks is to establish that a prospective tenant has the appropriate right to rent in England.

A professional and respectful approach.

Where a Right to Rent check is required, prospective tenants will be asked to provide the appropriate evidence or complete the relevant online verification process.

Depending on an individual's circumstances, this may involve:

• A British or Irish passport
• An eligible immigration document
• An online Home Office right-to-rent check
• Other documents or evidence permitted under the applicable rules
• We will explain what is required and handle information provided for verification purposes appropriately

If you have a time-limited right to rent

Some individuals have a time-limited right to rent. Where applicable, further checks may be required in accordance with the relevant legal requirements.

If your circumstances change, or you are unsure about your immigration or right-to-rent position, you should obtain appropriate advice from the UK Government or a suitably qualified immigration adviser.

Important information

Right to Rent requirements can change, and the precise process depends on your circumstances and the property involved. Sable and Stone does not provide immigration advice.

For the latest official guidance, prospective tenants should consult the UK Government's Right to Rent guidance before relying on information provided on this page.

Professional process. Clear communication. Respect for every tenant.
