      Worst part is that the mortgage for the property would cost you less.

      what annoys me is how in the UK, renters are fucked over left right and center , we never ever talk about it and Baz down the pub insists that it’s so hard being a landlord even though we have some of the most anti tenant, pro landlord rules in europe.

      idk about you guys but one things that depresses me about labour ir their total lack of communication with renters, we’re their fucking voting base. Instead it’s “deregulation deregulation deregulation”. Which is just gonna lead to more swarths of shitty houses that will be unlivable in a decade or two that no one can afford to live in except those who are already home owners..

      The storage company I’m using has increased their monthly fees by 40% in 3 years, which they in essence justified as “because they can”.

      And my landlord is increasing my rent twice as much as inflation.

      And yet housing policies still prioritize landlords over tenants. Time for real reform!

      Remember how the financial crisis was caused by mortgage debt.

      If this many people are forced into debt, and cannot pay, it’s the same end result.

      Yet the rent gets paid and is increasing in most parts of the country? When is this tipping point coming? We’ve been told this for about 10 years now.

      It comes as absolutely no surprise really…… a 3 bedroom semi detatched near me will set you back between £1100 – £1200 per month in rent, thats fucking insane ! it’s not a nice area either, a dingy town in the north of england.

      Housing will be the straw that breaks the camels back in the economy, it’s the largest payment in most peoples lives and we cant escape it. We are locked in by design, and we have far less to show for all our hard work than our parents did.

      I know people will bring up how it’s so much cheaper to get a mortgage, BUT it’s almost impossible to get a mortgage on your own these days, so you are kinda stuck renting unless you have a partner.

      I don’t struggle to pay rent. I struggle to live when that money is paid
