I’d like Parliament to discuss a way for families in this situation to find a way to own property.
Also to prevent landlords becoming too powerful.

This petition was rejected

The Government e-Petitions Team gave the following reason:

Petitions need to call on the Government or Parliament to take a specific action.

We understand that you're concerned about barrier to home ownership, but we're not sure exactly what you'd like the Government or Parliament to do.

Decisions about when to offer a mortgage are a matter for individual mortgage providers, not the Government or Parliament.

You could start a new petition explaining clearly what you would like the Government or Parliament to do.

We have published the following petition, which you might like to sign:

Set a limit on the number of properties a landlord can own and lease: petition.parliament.uk/petitions/598460
