Renters' Rights Bill Fails to Protect 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.
Des Taylor from Landlord Licensing & Defence states that landlords could face waiting 12 to 16 months to gain back possession of their property under the bill.
The Renters' Rights Bill isn't about protecting tenants, it's about protecting council budgets.
