The Government has announced new legislation to prevent private residential tenants from being swept into the scope of Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT) on rent as an unintended consequence of the Renters’ Rights Act 2025 (RRA 2025), which comes into force on 1 May 2026.
The change sits against a dramatic statutory overhaul that substantially strengthens tenant security and increases compliance obligations for landlords.
The Government has now opened a consultation in this regard titled “Moving to commonhold: banning leasehold for new flats”.
The consultation forms part of the next phase of leasehold reform and sits alongside the ongoing implementation of the Leasehold and Freehold Reform Act 2024 (‘The 2024 Act’) and the recently published draft Commonhold and Leasehold Reform Bill (‘The Bill’).
This seeks opinions from leaseholders, landlords and managing agents about how the Bill’s proposed ban on new residential leaseholds should be implemented in practice.
The Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (‘ATED’) is a yearly tax mainly payable by non-natural persons (i.e. companies) that own UK residential property valued at over £500,000.
The government has issued the Annual Tax on Enveloped Dwellings (Indexation of Annual Chargeable Amounts) Order 2026 (SI 2026/156), which updates the annual ATED charges for periods beginning on or after 1 April 2026. The Order came into force on 24 February 2026 and fulfils the statutory requirement in s.101(5) Finance Act 2013 to uprate the annual charges in line with inflation.
