Call You and Yours: What would improve your housing situation?

You and Yours

Available for over a year

On Call You & Yours today we're asking: What would improve your housing situation? Email [email protected], or call 03700 100 444 after 10.30am. The government's housing White Paper is announced today. It is likely to propose a greater emphasis on the rental sector, with new ideas to help tenants feel more secure - longer tenures and the possibility of scrapping letting agent fees. There's also the idea of building more affordable homes for renting - would this help the position you are in? Are you happy to carry on renting or ultimately would you like to own your own home? We'd like to hear about the housing stock in your area. Is there enough homes you would like to move to available? Are you an older person looking to downsize but can't find anywhere suitable? Email us at [email protected]. Please make sure you leave a phone number so we can call you back. You can text us on 84844. Our phone lines open at 1100, the number to call is 03700 100 444.
