UK rental fraud could cost landlords £4.1bn as fake tenant identities grow more sophisticated

  • Suspected rental fraud could expose the UK's private rented sector to £4.1 billion in annual losses.
  • Fake employment references rose 226.6 per cent in 2025.
  • London and high-value rental properties recorded some of the highest fraud rates.

Fraudulent tenancy applications could expose the UK's private rented sector to £4.1 billion in direct financial losses each year, according to an analysis of more than one million tenant references by Goodlord.
