Housing (Scotland) Act 2025

Crown Application

Part 1 – Rent

Chapter 3 - Other restrictions on rent increases
Frequency of rent increases
Section 24 - Private residential tenancies not in rent control area: frequency of rent increase

85.Section 19 of the 2016 Act provides that the rent payable under a PRT may not be increased more than once in a 12-month period. Section 24 of the 2025 Act modifies this section so that this restriction applies only where the let property is not in a rent control area (in consequence of the changes made by the 2025 Act in relation to rent control areas). It also modifies section 19 so that, where the let property is not in a rent control area, the rent payable may not be increased during the first 12 months of the tenancy except in such circumstances as may be specified by the Scottish Ministers in regulations.
