Letter templates for landlords

Pick a letter, fill in a few details, and get a letter you can edit, print and send. Always read it through before sending – you're responsible for what you send.

Rent increase cover letter

A friendly letter to send with the statutory section 13 notice.

Reply to a pet request

Approve, approve with conditions, or explain a reasonable refusal.

Notice of access for inspection or repairs

Give the tenant written notice before visiting (at least 24 hours).

Acknowledge a repair report

Confirm you've received a repair or damp/mould report and set out next steps.

Letter to existing tenants about the new rules

Explain the Renters' Rights Act changes to a tenant whose tenancy started before 1 May 2026.

Formal notices such as the section 13 rent increase notice and section 8 notices must use the government's prescribed forms. These templates are cover letters and everyday correspondence, not statutory notices.
