As social housing waiting lists in the UK continue to grow, more and more people are being forced into private rented property instead. This is leaving thousands of families and vulnerable households without a suitable home.
According to government social housing statistics, there are more than 1.8 million households waiting for a social home – an increase of 81% since 1997. Shelter’s analysis of the English housing survey 2010/11 suggested that two thirds of those on the waiting list have been waiting for more than a year.
The shortage in supply of social housing simply stems from one cause; inadequate quantity of purpose-built property over the past few decades. Additionally, whilst we have witnessed a lack of supply in housing, the demand has also risen. As a result, waiting lists for social housing continue to grow – forcing more and more people to move into private rented accommodation; thus presenting lucrative opportunities for landlords to cash in on the demand for rental properties.
Orchard & Shipman, a nationwide social housing company offers a very compelling proposition to today’s socially aware landlords; ensuring high rental incomes, guaranteed rent without voids, long term lease periods and no hidden costs.
Working with local authorities and central government to provide social housing solutions, Orchard & Shipman offer generous cash incentives to private landlords who make their properties available to Let for people in receipt of housing benefit in recognition of their contribution in helping the social housing crisis.
