If they are buying Hech, it is not enough to make up the shortfall.
The private rented sector lost 46,000 homes in 2016/17, at a time of a rapidly increasing population. How many were lost last year? How many this year and going forward?

I do not think it will be large corporates buying up all of the renting stock I think it is the current base of medium sized landlords with 100+ properties. Recently I met several who have between 200-500 units who are expanding aggressively. To top this off the banks are supporting this sector which...

Forced licensing already here in many areas and a proposal in a number of jurisdiction's was 24 hr emergency repair lines. I imagine a lot of large letting agents will offer them...

Sorry, this does make me laugh! 24 hour repair?

Would you buy a disabled adapted bungalow?

royw

I am considering buying a disabled adapted bungalow as a rental property but I have no idea how much interest there will be. I currently only rent to working people but disabled people may be DSS. The garden is quite small so may not suit a disabled child. Opinions please.
