April 2027 rents for every home, checked, and every tenant's letter written.

CPI + 1%: 4.5%, because CPI in the year to September 2026 was 3.5%. On top of that, a Social Rent home whose rent after 4.5% is still below its formula rent can go up by £1 a week more, but never past formula rent. If 4.5% would take a rent above 105% of formula rent (110% for supported housing), the rise is limited to CPI, 3.5%. No Social Rent can go above the rent cap for its number of bedrooms. That's paragraph 3.4 and 3.6 of the Rent Standard 2026.

Yes, that's the point. Select any home and you see every check in order with the paragraph it comes from: the weekly equivalent, CPI + 1%, the flexibility level, whether the £1 applies and where it stops, the rent cap, any fair rent, and the date and notice. The PDF opens with a schedule of every home and the limit that applied.

Yes. The regulator states every limit as a weekly rent over 52 weeks, so Aprilrent converts each home's charge to that basis, applies the limits exactly, converts back and rounds down to the penny, so no home ends up a fraction over. Monthly rents use the Policy Statement's 52.18 weeks.

Give the home's January 1999 value and its county instead, and Aprilrent works out the formula rent the way the Policy Statement sets out, including the different 2016-20 figures for almshouses, co-operatives and community land trusts. If you hold formula rents, use yours: your own system may round a penny or two differently.

Each letter shows the rent and service charges now and from April, the change, and in plain words how the new rent was worked out (the 4.5% limit, the £1, the cap or the fair rent, whichever applied), with your contact details. Letters say they are notice under the tenancy agreement, or a section 103 notice of variation for secure tenancies. Homes without a rent review term get the social housing Form 4 after their letter. Almshouse letters talk about the weekly maintenance contribution and residents.

What your tenancy agreements say (four weeks is common), counted in full. Section 13 homes need at least one month, and section 103 secure tenancies at least four weeks or a rent period if longer. Aprilrent gives every home the last day the letter must reach the tenant, and moves a section 13 home's date later if the 52-week rule or the rent period requires it.

It reaches social housing assured tenancies in October 2027, after April 2027's increase. From then a new section 13A applies, with one month's notice, and rent review terms keep working. The section 13A notice isn't prescribed yet; Aprilrent will add it for April 2028. See the government's social housing factsheet.

Homes the Rent Standard doesn't apply to: shared ownership, intermediate rent, specialised supported housing, student accommodation, PFI, temporary social housing and care homes. They're listed in the schedule, not lettered. Market rent homes follow the private rented sector rules and Form 4A, which Rentdial does. High income households (£60,000 or more) are outside the limits; give their new rent in your list.

Nothing is kept. Your list is read in memory to work out the figures and draw the PDF, then it's gone. No account, no database, no cookies. Columns Aprilrent doesn't use are removed in your browser first, and the one-home calculator sends nothing.
