I think I came on a said that agent who manage our property suggested we put the rent up, citing Government legislation as the reason for that increase. We don’t pluck figures out of thin air, we rely on the experts to guide us as they know the rental market in the locality. 

I’m just trying to work through things you said at the time. You said rents had gone up immediately entirely due to Rachel from accounts. You also said that you had previously deliberately kept rents low as you had good tenants and it was a way of keeping them, which kind of suggests not adhering to the experts to guide on price.

It’s not just my claim. They themselves have said they’re implementing policies which will lead to increased landlord costs being passed on to tenants. Seeing as I quoted word for word  from their own impact assessment,  and you still won’t accept it, there seems  little point in continuing this particular debate.

What are the policies that labour have implemented that have increased the costs to landlords?

It's a simple question.

The honest answer is none. Have the bollox to concede that.

Agents who get a cut of rent, in a "we think you should put rent up" shocker.
