Private Rented Housing: Construction

Asked by Mrs Kemi BadenochConservativeMinistry of Housing, Communities and Local GovernmentTabled Answered 9 September 2024UIN 2994

The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Housing, Communities and Local Government, what her policy is on build to rent; and what assessment she has made of the impact of her policies on private rented sector regulation on future investment in the build to rent sector.

Answered by Matthew Pennycook

This government is supportive of the Build to Rent sector and wants it to grow further. We do not expect our forthcoming Renters’ Rights Bill to have a destabilising effect on the rental market and will continue to work with good landlords and their representative associations throughout implementation.
