Islington Council is expanding its selective licensing scheme from November 2026, bringing thousands more privately rented homes under licensing requirements.

Here’s what Islington landlords and letting agents need to know about the new rules, affected areas and important deadlines.

Islington landlords need to be aware of significant changes to property licensing in Islington with a new selective licensing scheme coming into force later this year.

Islington Properties is pleased to announce its appointment as the new managing agent for a residential development located on Lough Road, London N7 8RH by the popular Paradise Park in Islington earlier this year.

The appointment further strengthens Islington Properties' growing block management portfolio across North London and reflects the company's reputation for delivering proactive, transparent and resident-focused property management services.

Islington Properties has announced the signing of a new residential block management instruction at Firstoak House which has further strengthened the firm’s presence in the Islington area.

Firstoak House is a four-storey residential apartment block comprising five flats and dating from the early twentieth century – believed to have been built between 1900 and 1929.

Islington Properties has been appointed as managing agent for Gabriel House on behalf of Islington Green Management Company Ltd which marks another addition to the firm’s growing block management portfolio in the borough.

Gabriel House is a purpose-built modern development that is comprised of 13 units and a commercial unit that was completed in 2005 and overlooks the gardens of Islington Green.

The 2025 UK Budget introduces some of the most significant changes to property taxation in recent years. While many of the reforms are focused on high-value homes and landlords, they are already capturing the attention of homeowners and investors across London including in Islington.
