If it's 'long awaited' by Landlords, and if those who provide the private housing for rent view it as 'fair', then there may be reason to be optimistic. Alternatively if the Landlords view the measures as being stacked against them and their interests and would only make their life more difficult, then common sense would indicate that the number of private premises for rent will decrease.

Fair to who, Khan wants immigrants to be prioritised over Brits on waiting lists. There more to England and Wales you know I am not one to normally complain but on occasion paying careful attention to grammar and spelling helps understand what is being said or trying to be said. I could try and interpret this sentence in several ways but I assume that the There should They're or do you mean their and missed out bits? |

How would it do that? A landlord wouldn’t evict a tenant because they want to leave the house empty would they? The way I see it is that it protects the tenant if they complain. What could happen is that some landlords will get fed up with serially complaining tenants ( they do exist)and sell the property ,some landlords will fix the problems faster and some landlords will just carry on as they always do. Either way it won’t create more houses . |

The government must have enough rat like cunning to realise that increasing rules and regulations will simply decrease the pool of available housing.

I remember the good old days of council houses.
Unfortunately they were sold off in the cheap and there is no chance in hell that they will return.

If a tenant is given notice to leave and does so before they've found another place their council classifies them as having made themselves intentionally homeless. They are supposed to stay put and the landlord has to get a possession order from a judge. Even then, if they haven't found as place they must stay put and wait for the bailiffs to turf them out. The landlord can recoup his costs from the tenant's deposit. Although it is a criminal offence for the landlord himself to evict a tenant ... punishable by up to three years imprisonment ... the police say "It's a civil matter" and will only come if there is a possibility of violence ... they'll stand around whilst the landlord dumps the tenants belongings in the street. Shelter says that over 50,000 people a year are illegally evicted. My landlord gets round the housing laws by claiming that there is a cleaner who does the rooms ... there never has been. This means my place is recorded by the Council as being a "hotel". A tenant was recently a few days late with his rent (he was ill and staying with a friend).The landlord rang ME and told me to tell him that if he didn't pay his rent within a couple of days he would have to "vacate the room". My landlord is treasurer of the Conservative club and was a district councillor for 40 years. As I'm supposedly "living in a hotel" I'd don't have a rent book.
