Episode 46: Why private Landlords are better at solving the housing crisis

 

This week I am sitting down with Rachael Troughton to speak about property and the role of private landlords in solving housing crises. Rachael is a property owner, podcast host, business mentor, speaker, farm owner and wedding venue proprietor extraordinaire. On an island with limited space, providing enough housing can be challenging. Without private landlords, there simply wouldn’t be enough quality places to live.

 

While private landlords are often depicted as abusive and greedy in the British media, the truth is often the opposite. True private landlords (and not just people looking to make a pound off of letting their garden shed) are subject to dozens of regulations and inspections that prevent issues with mould or leaks and protect the rights and quality of life of tenants. We will be discussion recent legislation around renting, key characteristics of a good landlord, and the pressures and challenges faced by private landlords who are trying to provide safe, decent housing.

 

Tune in if you are a landlord (or a renter for that matter), or if you have been thinking of investing in property to learn more.
