Amandacat has told us a nice little story with no actual evidence.gabby71 said:
Seems not - previous poster Amandacat has confirmed there are developments specifically for long term renters- seems like some developers are jumping on 👍🏼SpiderLegs said:
What you are suggesting is pure fantasy.gabby71 said:
As long as you want to stay, a place you can settle in, improve, not worry about the landlord selling upSpiderLegs said:
What length do you consider to be a long term tenancy?gabby71 said:
I’m unsure how that comment relates?SpiderLegs said:
The average tenancy length is around 4 years.gabby71 said:For people who are unable to buy a property and have a slim chance of getting a housing association property (or don’t want to live on a housing association estate) the only option is private renting where you are at risk of getting notice to leave at any time, can’t really make it your own or put down roots...I’m surprised the government/developers haven’t realised there are many out there who would jump at the opportunity to have the chance of a guaranteed long term tenancy
I’m sure when we do see the detail we’ll be able to judge whether these schemes allow the ‘renter’ to stay there ad infinitum with no ability for the ‘landlord’ to seek repossession.
How you think what amandacat described is the same as your OP or your follow up nonsense I don’t know.
FYI Rent to buy schemes have been around for quite a while and are generally more expensive ways to end up buying a house. They are the housing equivalent of PCP car finance. What they are not is an everlasting rental scheme.

Well to be fair I just asked you how long you considered a long term tenancy to be. Your response was ‘as long as the tenant wants’.gabby71 said:

I can say with reasonable confidence that most people would consider that to be nonsense.

Such a system would have disadvantages in inflexibility for the landlord over a normal tenancy - so I would expect rent charges to be higher, which in turn would make them less attractive for the tenants...But a banker, engaged at enormous expense,Had the whole of their cash in his care.

You perhaps want to read that further. The rental properties are managed through a housing association which is no different to any other new build development which has an element of affordable housing.gabby71 said:

Tirion Homes are highly unlikely to make someone leave their home as they died/got divorced/need the money etc - the whole point of my post was how difficult it is to find somewhere secure to live whilst privately rentingRelievedSheff said:
