Planning and land rules in Canning Town

If you rent privately in Canning Town, the Renters' Rights Act 2025 now shapes your tenancy: most tenancies run from one rent period to the next, rent can usually only be raised once a year through a formal process, and no-fault evictions have ended. Affordable options in England include Social Rent, Affordable Rent at up to 80% of market rent, and shared ownership. Land to Homes plans homes for sale and rent, and you can register interest now.

In England, the Renters' Rights Act 2025 has replaced assured shorthold tenancies with assured periodic tenancies for most private lets, ending section 21 'no fault' evictions. Deposits must be protected in a government-approved scheme. Social and affordable rent homes are let by councils and registered providers, which are regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing.

Your questions answered for Canning Town

Can I apply to you for a social or affordable rent home?

No. Social and affordable rent homes are let through council housing registers and housing association lists, which set the eligibility rules and decide who is offered a home. If a site we bring forward includes affordable homes, they will be let through the relevant council or housing association. Contact your local council's housing team to join a list.

Are new-build rented homes more energy efficient?

Generally, yes. New homes must meet current building regulations or building standards on insulation, airtightness and heating, which are stricter than the rules many older homes were built to. That usually means a better Energy Performance Certificate rating, although running costs still depend on the home, the heating system and how it is used.

Does Land to Homes have any homes to rent?

No, not yet. Land to Homes is a new venture and has no homes available to rent. We do not take rental applications, holding deposits or fees at this stage. You can register interest with the area, type of home and timing you need, and we will contact you if we bring forward rental homes that match.

How do I register interest in renting a new home?

Give us your contact details, the areas you are interested in, the type and size of home you need and roughly when you want to move. We use that to contact you about relevant homes and to understand rental demand when we plan sites. It is free, it is not an application and you can ask us to remove your details at any time.

Are there new homes available in Canning Town now?

Not yet. Land to Homes has no homes available in Canning Town at the moment. You can register your interest for Canning Town, and we will contact you if we bring homes forward there or nearby.
