REVEALED: Only 16 rogue landlords are banned from renting out properties.
Cash-strapped councils are reluctant to take landlords to court due to legal costs, a lawyer told openDemocracy.

A regular survey of renters by charity Shelter shows 33 per cent had to borrow money to meet rent in the past month when surveyed in June. The figure is the highest since before the pandemic, the charity says. 15 per cent of renters in England used credit cards or overdrafts, while 8 per cent turned to family or friends to lend them money.
Meanwhile, building of social housing has almost stopped. England is a private landlord's paradise.

GreyStar mgmt in #Colorado literally admitted to me that they use a process of stealing security deposits for their own repair and cleaning of each unit after you move - Which is specifically outlawed in this state.
They still kept the deposit and I didn't hear crap from the AG after I reported them for this and everything. All #Landlord are bastards.

Census data raises questions about the narrative that landlords are fleeing the market. There are more rented homes now than there were in 2016, it shows. Even as there are fewer registered tenancies, according to the Residential Tenancies Board. #Dublin #Ireland #Housing #Renting

"Why I Returned to #Renting After a Few Years of #HomeOwnership;
When my husband and I told our loved ones we were leaving our single-family #house for a much smaller #rental, there were definitely a few WTF moments."

>> This is a direct political decision of the Govt.
It chose to allow people to be evicted, to increase the profits of landlords.
>>In Swords, a long-term tenant facing a no-reason eviction finds she’s far from alone. Her overseas landlord has issued notices to quit under the same law to some of her neighbours, and to residents of at least two other apartment complexes in the city. #Dublin #Ireland #housing #renting #evictions

#renting an apartment almost always makes me have to make a difficult choice:
Do I fix a leaky faucet myself (100% have the ability to do so) and flex my belief of #RightToRepair
Or
Do I schedule with the land lord to get it done in like 2-3 weeks. And not have to worry about the small chance something gets damaged
For reference: the leak is only while running and is from the faucet above the sink so it isn’t causing any damage, it is just annoying.

Fairy Martins have just started building a mud nest outside our dining room window. While it would be wonderfull to watch them nest and raise young we are in a rented house and I strongly suspect the landlord will want it knocked down. So I'm faced with a choice: remove it now, long before any eggs are laid or let them be and risk being forced to knock it down while there are eggs or babies inside.

tenant power. It is time to take housing back with non market housing choices.
demand housing co-ops, non profits providing at cost. We need it because the rich own it all and we are worse off than slaves or serfs of 200 years ago. It is us or them.

4th Saturday morning in a row of my home being open as my landlord tries to sell. This morning the REA turned up 15 minutes early with a prospective buyer in tow, not so much as a "If you don't mind". So great. Really enjoying that right to the peaceful enjoyment of my home.
