At least a million rentals don’t yet comply so be interesting to see how it unfold further. In a house I rent out in Treforest nr the Uni, rents have gone from £300 to £350 a month since September…..a room in a house in heath came available last sept and I had 60 people apply in one day. Nice work Drakeford
The problem is a lack of housing stock

If the Tories hadn't sold off millions of council homes then less people would be sharking around desperate for a place to live

The private rented sector was pushed by the conservatives to take up the slack

For many people it's great , young workers , students etc but the rents are too high and it must be regulated so landlords can make profit but tenants can have a fair deal

I am not sure that's really possible , maybe it has been ?
