Richlist Posted September 26, 2014 Report Share Posted September 26, 2014 There are some intriguing figures in the press today: * In England alone (that's not including Scotland, Wales or Ireland) there are 3.8 million homes rented privately. * The 3.8 million rented homes = 16.5% of all households. * The London proportion is double at 33%. NOTE: If there are 3.8 million homes it means there are at least 3.8 million tenants and I have it on good authority that at least 20 of them are good ones....I know cos I've got most of them. It must give us all a degree of comfort to know that in ones darkest days, when your property has been empty for a while there are lots of people out there looking for somewhere to live.

Mortitia Posted September 27, 2014 Report Share Posted September 27, 2014 That's interesting. I thought there would be more renting as population of UK is around 55 million. I would like to know how many tenants are on HB? How many tenants do not pay their water bills and/or council tax at all? How many of these are non UK nationals? No racist argument is intended - I just want to know and I expect some of you do too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
