The council with the highest level of stock sold under
the Right to Buy now in the private rented sector is Milton Keynes, with 70.9%
of 1,609 flats sold under the policy in the hands of private landlords. Inside
Housing has learned that John Bint, who has been a councillor since 2007, is
likely to be receiving thousands of pounds a month in rent payments through
buying the properties. A register of interests document for Mr Bint from June
2017 shows he owns 14 homes in Milton Keynes. Information obtained from the
Land Registry indicates that 10 of these were owned by the council before being
sold. Read more on Inside Housing.
