How we research and review

We Want To Rent publishes practical guidance for people renting in the UK. We focus on decisions you can make and evidence you can check.

Sources and jurisdiction

We prioritise official guidance, established tenant advice organisations and clearly attributed research. Articles identify the nations they cover. Market figures are labelled by their period and what they measure.

AI assistance and human review

We use AI to help identify topics and prepare drafts from approved sources. An editor checks the evidence, dates and relevance before publishing. AI checks help identify problems; they do not establish that a legal or financial claim is correct.

Updates and corrections

We keep publication and update dates separate. Source changes can trigger a new review. If you spot a mistake, contact our support team with the article URL and the issue. We correct material errors and explain substantive corrections in the article.

Your information

Private rental records, correspondence and tenant images are not used to create articles. We measure article requests and product links using aggregate counters, without individual visitor tracking.

Using this guidance

Our articles provide general information. The right next step depends on your nation, tenancy and circumstances. Sources and specialist advice organisations linked from an article can help with a specific dispute.
