Rent controls, lifelong tenancies, a public landlord
database and an end to Section 21 are among the calls in a report by the New
Economics Foundation. The think tank has outlined a number of proposals it
wants political parties to adopt in order to reform what it describes as the
“broken economy”. It proposes:
·
An end to Section 21 repossessions and the
introduction of lifetime and open-ended tenancies.
·
The creation of a publicly accessible database
of landlords and rents.
·
A model of rent controls that would limit rents
within and between tenancies and bring rents down to levels affordable on local
incomes.
