Landlords are a cottage industry

Cosy cottage to rent ££495 pcm
The recent Private Landlords Survey taken by the Government has thrown up some interesting statistics.

No more so than the statistic that 78 per cent of private landlords only owned a single dwelling for rent, with only 8 per cent of landlords stating they were full time landlords.

As we've always said the private rental sector is largely a cottage industry. Pass me the wool I want to knit my tenant a new blanket.

    1.5M cottages in this country then? Landlord who let just one property are as important as those of us who let many we are all providing homes for other people. In my experience those people who are not full time landlords often do a really good job of looking after their tenants and the properties. Mary Latham
