What does this report include?
Threats to Landlords and Agencies
When economic conditions are tough, fraud increases. When access to rental properties becomes harder, people are more likely to lie on their applications to gain priority access. The average cost to a landlord of evicting a tenant in default is now £65,000. Tenants who conceal their true financial and residential history are significantly more likely to default.
