Renters & Landlords: What Is Going To Happen Now?

In this video, we dive into the impact of Sir Keir Starmer and the Labour Party coming into power after a 14-year Conservative government on renters and landlords. What does this political shift mean for the UK housing market, property investment, and the future of renting and owning homes in the UK?
Join me, Will Gale, as I break down Labour's key policies affecting the property market into three sections:
1. What did Labour Declare They Would Do?
2. What Effect Will These Things Have on the Property Market?
3. My Personal Opinion
With over 10 years of experience in building a UK-wide homebuying company, a nationwide estate agency, and managing my personal property portfolio, I bring you insider knowledge and expert analysis on the following key points:
Labour's Corporation Tax Cap
- Building 1.5 Million Homes
- Increasing Stamp Duty for Non-UK Residents
- Reforming Private Renting
- Rent Controls
- Helping First-Time Buyers
- Regulating Holiday Homes & Short-Term Lets
Will these policies benefit renters and landlords? How will the UK property market evolve under Labour's rule? Watch to find out!

    I think house crash is already happening and Landlords leaving is because all those people who bought homes over asking price, although it was at a low interest rate, they are over their heads. They have no equity if the housing prices continue to go down, and if for whatever reason they cannot afford the house anymore and it goes into foreclosure because even if they try to sell, they will not make any money. I think this will happen to a lot of people especially with the massive layoff predicted for now/future and the cost of living rising at a high speed.

    What's the point in building loads more social housing over 5 years to 1.5 million homes, when over that same period the open door migrant policy is likely to reach the equivalent number. And Labours policy is to instruct local councils to accept migrants and assign them into social housing units. The net effect will be loads more foreigners in the country taking up housing that should be allocated to UK nationals. So the net effect for UK residents is zero!!!! And the net effect on the property market will also be zero. As a nation our private homes will be still be way over priced and woefully short on stock.

    im sure the increase in migrant workers is much more responsive to job vacancies than to social housing availability since you need to prove an income for visa. Social housing is managed by need with a waiting list, thus you cant migrate to the uk for work and get a council house when you arrive. If labour meet their targets they will still just be making progress with the existing social housing waiting list (existing residents). Refugees are and should be offered council housing. However the flow of refugees isn't very significant compared to this number of houses labours looking to build.

    Don’t normally comment, but to blame the lack of housing stock solely on Maggie Thatcher is incorrect. Yes she did reduce the housing stock by the terrible idea to sell off as much of the social housing as she did, but the catalyst to the downturn of building was labour in 1974 with the town and country act. This effectively nationalised building and tied it up in so much bureaucracy, it is almost impossible to build freely. 1960’s lots of houses being built, 1980’s nothing, in the middle the 1974 town and country. Yes, I know this was originally boring into law in 1947, but when labour changed it in 1974 they effectively nationalised it putting us in the situation we are in today. They try to amend planning her and there and change other legislation, completely ignoring that no matter what they do, this act will continue to frustrate the building process. And it would seem that there are no plans to address this, as labour never do. Just my two pence on the housing crisis

    Also the air b&b has taken huge stocks of the market and limiting the time they can be used ,also halved available . In edinburgh students rented the flats at lower rates but in the holidays they used to be rented out to tourists at a much higher rate , so students were happy as were the tourists. So two usages and only one flat. BUT NOW you can only air B&b for three months a year MAX, and it cannot be used for anything else . Students by law MUST rent and pay for one calendar year ( even though uni is only 36 weeks and they want to go home . ) so flats sit empty but cannot be rented out ????? How mad . So to cover the same market you need two flats instead of one….. this is the MAD policies in place to push small landlords and LTD property businesses out for BIG corporations .. not to mention insurance went up three times this year!

This is as a consequence of tenants being generally unable to afford anymore rent increases. So the market has found its own level. Potentially as wage increases occur there maybe scope for further increases. This is unlikely in the near future. The PRS is effectively taking a bit of a breather.

    To achieve properties built goal, they have to: 1. Simplify and speed up planning - no planning fees if it took over 2 months 2. Reduce or ideally remove minimum flat size requirement (currently 50m2 = 540sq ft) 3. Force builders to complete and release properties in a site in a fixed time - they currently build release slowly slowly over some years to maintain price increases

    @@BritishHomeInvestors Well, I lived in a small flat in Paris for some months, it was 18m2! Had a bedroom, bathroom, living room/kitchen even a lobby! Yes, it was small but enough and cheaper. I loved it, my guests always commented positively and loved it. Parties were more friendly :) Like small cars, they use the space much better and become more creative when there is little of it to waste. We need more housing, a lot more and one way to get to that is to build smaller units and keeping cost lower. Let's leave the choice to the market. Rather than imposing a blanket 50 m2, authorities should look at utility and function in each project. If smaller flat meets the criteria, leave it to the market - if too small then people don't rent it and it stays out of use. I bet it won't :)

    Rents should be linked to mortgage repatments. Enough to cover mortgage (and whatever else is included eg insurance) plus a defined percentage on top for incidentals and costs. If the mortgage is fully paid, then yes there should be a price cap based on the standard mortgage repayment and nothing more. That is the documents that rent should be based on, not the will of the landlord. As for evictions. Not paying rent, and not talking to the landlord for a rent repayment scheme, for more than 2 months should be grounds to move to an eviction notice. So long as the rent is within the parameters of above.

    Interesting ideas. What if a landlord doesn’t have a mortgage? Or has a smaller mortgage? What if the landlord makes improvements the justify it renting for more? Issues with rent caps have been that landlords aren’t incentivised to increase the quality of accommodation. They only have incentive to hit minimum requirements. So quality tends to go down. It’s like putting a price cap on hotels. Why be a 4/5 star hotel if your capped on what you can charge

    Rents should not be linked to mortgages. What you are arguing is protecting the landlords investment that they are protected from risk. Let’s add welfare support into the equation. Suppose the tenant requires state help to pay their rent, and the landlords mortgage payments go up, you want the landlord to be able to increase the rent. The cost to the state (taxpayer) then increases when the state support goes up. Effectively you’re saying the taxpayer should pay for the landlord to acquire this asset

Eg if planning remains restrictive for the private sector but relatively easy for the public sector or if the public sector gets to poach excessive labour from the private sector. I do object to public funds being used to build houses for long-term below market rents. Why would we want a return to a two tier rental market where the lucky ones are selected because at one point in time they managed to score enough points to be eligible for sustained subsidy even though their circumstances may well have changed? It doesn't seem like a good way to judge need, increases inequality among the poor and yields sub-market return for taxpayer investment. A terrible policy.

Because the Bank of England raised interest rates which caused most landlords to sell up and the others to raise their rents to afford the mortgage payments. The same landlords that can’t put much of any of their expenses against taxes so they make even less money than they made before. Without landlords, people wouldn’t have homes. I appreciate there are some bad landlords out there but they shouldn’t define your perception of all landlords. Many landlords help tenants through tough times.

    Every year average rents increase by more than inflation. The increase in base rate is a reflection of inflationary pressures on the economy. Landlords increase rents because they know people have to pay it to exist. It's just worse the last few years because overall inflation has been so high. Claims of tax woes are laughable. Landlords enjoy ample deductions and benefits. Tenants get none. Landlords don't create homes; they hoard them and inflate prices, making housing less accessible.. Landlords extract value without real work, draining tenants’ incomes and stifling economic mobility. Tenants pay their landlord's mortgage + more for the privilege. Defending landlords is a farce. They exploit the system for profit, leaving tenants to suffer. We need fairer housing policies.

    @@BritishHomeInvestors not in the way that we do now. Shouldn't be run for profit. There have been lots of successful charitable organisations that offer social housing. Main issues with landlordism are: you drive up housing costs by making housing into an asset to make profit from. This puts more demand on housing, driving up price, leaving those without capital to pay rent. House price to income ratios have skyrocketed over the last decade, it's not just poor or fiscally improper people who can't save for a house. Also what work do landlords actually do? Landlords do not pay their own mortgages, their tenants do. Landlords don't pay for repairs or maintenance of property, their tenants do. You might argue that landlords help to improve properties by buying them and doing them up, then renting them out, unfortunately the work they do stops once they've done up the place. They're then just holding onto unrealised capital gains and getting someone else to pay for the running costs of their investment.

    So we have a landlord here singing for his supper. Who'd have thought it ? He glibly declares that increased house building will offset his profit losses - so how will that help the poor exactly, if ownership isn't regulated ? He also just declares rent controls to 'not work'. Not for him maybe. Neoliberalism has had it's day, the unregulated market leads to greed, exploitation and destitution, simples. This guy may have a gelled hairdo, but he looks a lot like Ebeneezer to me. They do not want the poor to have their own houses. They are parasites, quite literally, who want to keep their dependent, vulnerable customers right where they've got them to be milked like dairy cattle for profit. The solution ? Regulated markets and ownership, social housing and rent controls. When people twig that Starmer's Labour are not actually about that, we may actually start to get somewhere. I'm not holding my breath. (Having said that, only 20 per cent of the population voted for him, no matter how the media try and hype up the fake landslide)

I get investors say I’m anti landlord and tenants share similar views to you. However, other than the attack on my character. I do agree with all you’ve said. I’m not against anything that gives advantage to home owners over investors. Because I personally think the market is too easy for investors. Property investing needs to be about building homes, adding value to property that the majority of homeowners won’t want to do and adds value to the sector. I think when the economics allow an investor to buy a classic home with a 75% mortgage and turn a profit. There is a problem.

    When you interfere with a free market, you cap the incentive for private investment. For example rent caps reduce private incentive to invest. However reducing the barriers to building new homes to expand supply encourages more private incentive, increasing supply & competition drives down prices over time. On immigration. It’s a good thing but needs to be legal. Clearly illegal immigration is causing major issues. Blaming everything on immigration I don’t think solves anything.

    ​@@michaelteasdill6410What a load of twaddle you spout. You have no idea how market rents are set. Got nothing to do with income levels. Granted they are PART of the market rent assessment. But there are so many other factors that lead to generation of market rent levels. Your simplistic understanding of the PRS just proves how the average tenant is an idiot. You simply DONT understand how the PRS works.
