Just two in 10 landlords say they are willing to let to
tenants in receipt of housing benefit or universal credit, according to latest
research from the National Landlords Association (NLA). The findings show that
the proportion of landlords who say they are willing to let their property to
housing benefit claimants has fallen to just 20%, down from 34% at the start of
2013. The research, taken from the NLA’s Quarterly Landlord Panel, also shows
that two in three landlords who let to housing benefit recipients say they have
fallen behind on rental payments in the last 12 months. Read more on the NLA
website.
