@@charleskellymoneytipspodca9121 the housing market has many problems. Second homes being a major issue being left vacant for most of the time when family's could be in them. You need to have a real think about the whole concept of private landlordship. It is certainly not to provide anyone with any home security. Be honest most private landlords are only interested in profits not people. How would you like a mortgage company to say " You mght have leave your home and find somewhere else to live in six months or a year or two years" these are the kind of contracts tenant's have to sign as they have no other choice. Where's the morality in that? As for your question, how long should a tenant have security? It should be for a minimum of 20 years unless the tenant wishes to leave earlier.

Lloyds Banking Group, Blackstone…do your research. I don’t agree that buy to let landlords come out bid first time buyers. Buy to let landlords have to buy a property that will produce a rental yield. This has become increasingly difficult as prices have risen faster than rents. A first time buyer can pay more because they are buying the property to live in. First time buyers also pay less stamp duty then landlords. Landlords are pulling out of the market and the numbers of new landlord is coming in is falling. The model is not what it used to be. The problems for first time buyers has not been created by landlords, but my government policy and central banks.

Then we got toll roads/bridges/gates/ports. Import tax. The two worst taxes are Stamp Duty on homes (stopping people from moving closer to their work) and IHT.

They had to lower the interest rate Charles and they will need to continue lowering the interest rate, yes we have seen higher nominal interest rates in the past but when you correlate today’s 5.25% to the amount of national & private debt swishing around the system todays interest rates are literally the highest since Jesus Christ. I’m not so sure about the rates only falling back to 3%? General conception’s especially amongst educated economists are normally massively wrong, i personally think we had 13/14 years of rates below 1% mass economic migration legal and illegal and the economy had minuscule growth in that time. So if the labour government (As they say they do) and most of the other western world economies want economic growth their going to have to have very very low interest rates.

Housing association which takes care of neighboorhood refuse to cut overgrown few metres high ivy bush which comes into my property - garden and fence from outside. Ive been busy with this since autumn 2022. Recently went to speak to manager of their greenery maintenance and he was absolutely rude, saying basically what is my priblem and dismissing my concerns. Eventually said they will be cutting hedges in october, november maybe. Which i dont believe in as they havent done my hedge since years, even when they came to cut hedges they didnt touch mine. What legal rights do i have? Can i arrange for it to be cut privately and bill the housing association?

You are right to ask about landlords protection as they are not covered in this bill, hence the name “Renters” rights bill. In my previous experience, as a councillor, I found that housing associations had a poor record of maintaining properties. I dealt with a number of complaints on behalf of tenants and was shocked by the state of some of the properties which had damp problems. In one property are dealt with, there was not even smoke alarms and the housing association manager said that was not their responsibility! I later challenged this with the council, and they quickly smoke alarms in all their properties in the borough. I’m not sure what your rights are, but I would suggest that you write to them recorded delivery with a final warning or get advice from your solicitor. I would send a copy of the letter to the chief executive of the housing association. You could do this via email and just copying everybody including the local councillor. The person who was rude to you is out of order really, and probably not acting in the best interests of the housing association Good luck

From us good landlords if crazy rules are brought in it will quickly lead to a meltdown and crisis that am sure Labour won't want to pickup. But for us a complete mindset change. For example I currently have like yourself only increased rents for existing tenants very rarely so the longer they stay, the further behind the current market rate it becomes. Never issue Section 21 's unless malicious damage. Hence Tenants very happy and a good deal all round. In the future if laws are introduced that limit possession I will increase rents by the maximum allowed every year. Nothing to do with exploitation, but having a tenant in your property long term and with a great deal could spell disaster. If they naturally look round every year as the deal is no better than alternatives, that's better news for Landords as it will provide regular opportunities to sell, move into themselves, or rent out again at that point. So no way are these type of measures are realistically going to help tenants . The government would be far better looking for as ways to target bad landlords that hike rents, issue bogus Section 21's so the rest of us can carry on offering a fair deal, but criticaly without the worry of losing control of our own assets.

Councils cannot afford to build even 5% of what they are forced to sell, and what they do build they're forced to sell in the future. 3. Councils lose a source of income, and tenant's are on the unscrupulous LL rent increase + eviction merry-go-round. 4. The very properties that LL's buy (from ex social housing stock) are now being rented to Council tenants. These are at inflated rates, but councils have no choice due to legal guidance and laws obliging them to provide housing. 5. Notice the amount of councils going or near bankruptcy? Come on Charles? Wake up sweetheart! A rental society isn't necessary bad, but only if the sort of tenant protection you get in France / Germany / Spain is in place. Without that you get what's happening in the UK.

@@charleskellymoneytipspodca9121 Well converting a 3 bed terraced house into a HMO can only be a terrible idea and should be discouraged as much as possible.

The majority are not turning terrace houses into HMOs... That's utter nonsense, it's a tiny minority and they're only in certain areas, usually student areas but either way it's a very small proportion... They are also not limiting properties for first-time buyers!... That's hogwash too!... Look outside London and there's absolutely tonnes of terraced and cheap housing on the market... The average deposit of first-time buyers is well over 50k and the average mortgage for first-time buyers is nearly 230k... They are not buying terraced houses with those budgets lol, you could buy 4 terraced houses up North with the average first-time buyer budget... So in summary, the properties landlords are typically letting out are in massive abundance and they are 100% not competing with first-time buyers, they are in a completely different market... Most landlords I know aren't wealthy either, they're usually in the 40s upwards, have worked their fingers to the bone and I have either had to do it to move house or are doing it so they have an half decent pension when they eventually retire because either they are self-employed and don't have access to a private pension or had no access to an employers pension so are investing in property to supplement the pathetic state pension... Every landlord I know really look after their properties and tenants too!

It's not good if you're a renter, as the supply of available rental properties dries up, the price goes up...... remember '' Toilet Roll Gate '' from the pandemic !! Get the idea.
