Crisis is calling for a rental deposit guarantee scheme
to be set up across England, to ease landlords' fears that letting properties
to people who have been homeless is too risky. More than eight in 10 (82%)
private landlords across England are unwilling to rent to homeless people,
according to research for Crisis. The survey of more than 800 landlords found
their main concerns were that people who have been homeless pose a greater risk
of rent arrears and that they were worried their property would need to be more
intensively managed. Crisis has launched a campaign called Home: No Less Will
Do - calling for stronger action across England to help homeless people secure
a home to rent. Read more on the Express & Star website.
