Renters' Rights Bill Criticized for Prioritizing Council Budgets
A landlord compliance expert, Des Taylor, warns that the Renters' Rights Bill is being mis-sold to the public as protecting tenants, when in reality it protects council budgets through tougher civil penalties.
The Renters' Rights Bill isn't about protecting tenants, it's about protecting council budgets.
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. The final version of the bill has been approved by MPs and will now head to Royal Assent.
- Landlords may wait 12-16 months to regain property possession
