Review the affordability of the rental market

Petition Details

We think the affordability of the rental market needs to be reviewed by government. We think the review should consider requiring landlords to offer a discounted rate on rent for single occupants such as 25%, like how council tax is done for single occupants as we think this would be beneficial.

Additional Information

As someone who works full time and has no one to share a flat with, I feel renting a 1 bed flat is my only option.
