Renters' Rights Bill: Protecting Council Budgets, Not Tenants
A landlord compliance expert warns that the Renters' Rights Bill is being mis-sold to the public as protecting tenants, but instead is protecting council budgets through tougher civil penalties.
The Renters' Rights Bill isn't about protecting tenants, it's about protecting council budgets.
Des Taylor from Landlord Licensing & Defence says that under the bill, landlords could face waiting 12 to 16 months to gain back possession of their property, while councils will increase their income through tougher regulations.
- MPs have approved the final version of the Renters' Rights Bill, which will now head to Royal Assent.
- The bill's reality is different from what the Labour government claims it to be, according to Mr Taylor.
