Michael Johnson's Recent Activity

ARLA and Daryl Macintosh of Property mark once again using very carefully worded statements- very politically correct, why don’t they just say it as it is- Patrick Harvie hates the private sector and is a deep down left wing activist who has a chip on his shoulder because a landlord evicted him and now he will ultimately make it worse for Scottish tenants-

Yet another waste of public money- trying to offload tenants onto the private sector Why not just offer to be permanent Guarantors to the private sector and give some confidence to both the landlords and the tenants. I can guess why…….!

Yet again housing legislation introduced as a knee jerk reaction without thinking through the ramifications , this is the result of going after landlords and agents and making the situation worse for the tenants, the people they are purportedly trying to protect. Unfortunately this mind set is affecting all housing legislation and will eventually lead to an even worse situation than we have now in the rental sector

Its an interesting view from a tenant. However firstly the property owner explained that they no longer wanted to be a landlord which is entirely truthful, they wanted to be part of the short term letting business. Why not its their business and if they want to partake in a more active investment strategy then that's their choice. Having owned a hotel personally I would not want to be part of that business. Secondly why does this former tenant describe it as their old flat, it was never their flat or their property they were paying a market rent for it, ownership was not part of the deal. Whilst tax changes have made the changeover to short term lets faster I believe it would have happened anyway as it is a new and growing market, the tax changes speeded all of this up. I notice all the usual suspects are now keen to gang on short term let investors now, its just jealousy

Julia James speaks with a forked tongue- instead of acting as her propaganda mouthpiece, why don't you ask her how many applications they have had and how many they actually agreed to? As we virtually cannot evict for arrears of rent unless its over 6 months and the court hearing date is into 2022 , what motivates a tenant with arrears to crystallise the debt when in all probability they will end up getting away with paying nothing. The current ultra left wing Welsh Assembly could not care a hoot about landlords or tenants they just like to look like they are doing something.

Section 21 was introduced in 1988 by a real conservative government to motivate landlords to let out their property with the freedom to get their property back. Unfortunately the conservatives we have these days are weak and will say just about anything to get a vote. This will cause untold harm to tenants over the forthcoming years as smaller landlords leave the sector and the larger corporate landlords take the best tenants. This will prove a disaster for tenants.

Unfortunately Generation rent Etc cannot seem to understand that over legislating is very counter productive and keeps changing the landscape of the PRS. The relationship between landlords and tenants is a symbiotic one and there cannot be one without the other. Once this is understood and legislation is put in place to govern both sides there will be less need for this combative language but personally I think there are far too many people and organisations making a lot of money out of these attacks

Once the state starts to interfere in the free market I would expect to see an exodus of some investors from the lettings market, particularly the residential sector. This socialist approach will unfortunately lead to less choice, less quality housing and the only ones who will suffer long term will the the tenants and of course the landlords who didn't get out quick enough . Funny how policies end up going full circle and politicians seem to ignore lessons from the past.

That’s sounds like a great idea- how can we get more information

I always find it interesting that all the ideas to help tenants seem to come from people with no experience or knowledge of actually managing tenants or being a landlord. It just seems to me that every piece of legislation designed to help tenants just pushes rents up. To be honest if I was a tenant I would seriously ask whose interests are being served. This latest piece of proposed legislation will push a few more out and I suspect more are getting out than getting into the Lettings business which inevitably has only one effect

This will be pushed through despite of any protests. Landlords are an easy target, those properties that achieve a 'C' rating will be priced accordingly and the lack of supply will increase. Ultimately tenants will suffer under these proposals
