Planning in Wellingborough: the English rules
If you rent privately in Wellingborough, 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.

Questions about New Homes to Rent in Wellingborough
How are tenancies different in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland?
In Wales, tenants are contract-holders under occupation contracts set by the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016. Most private tenancies in Scotland are open-ended private residential tenancies. In Northern Ireland, private tenancies are governed by the Private Tenancies Order, as amended by the Private Tenancies Act 2022. Each nation has its own rules on deposits, notice and landlord registration.
What kind of tenancy would I get in England?
Under the Renters' Rights Act 2025, most new private tenancies in England are assured periodic tenancies with no fixed end date, and section 21 'no fault' evictions have ended. Landlords must rely on specified grounds to seek possession. Social housing tenancies follow different rules. For advice on your own circumstances, speak to an independent housing adviser.
What is build to rent?
Build to rent means homes designed and built specifically for renting, usually owned by one landlord and professionally managed as a whole development. Schemes often include on-site management and shared spaces. Land to Homes talks to institutional partners about build to rent, but we have no build to rent homes available at present.
Will my deposit be protected?
In most cases, yes. Each nation requires private landlords to protect tenancy deposits in an approved scheme within a set period and to give tenants information about the scheme. The detailed rules differ between England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. If homes we bring forward are let privately, deposits will be handled under the rules that apply.
Are there new homes available in Wellingborough now?
Not yet. Land to Homes has no homes available in Wellingborough at the moment. You can register your interest for Wellingborough, and we will contact you if we bring homes forward there or nearby.
