For the millions of people who rent privately in the UK, you may have noticed it feels harder than ever right now.
Or as one renter we spoke to told us - “It’s basically like the Wild West.”
We put a message out online and were inundated with replies about rent hikes, mouldy homes and impossible flat hunts.
Demand for rental properties is rising, but the supply of homes for rent is shrinking and the cost of monthly rent has increased by the highest rate on record.
We look at all of these issues and explain why they’re happening in the UK right now.
