The effects of rent restructuring on social housing in English rural areas
Article Abstract:
The impact of central government's rent restructuring policy on social housing in rural areas in England is discussed. The reduction in real Registered Social Landlord (RSL) rents that improve affordability may constrain RSL's ability to invest in new social housing in rural areas and thus the rent restructuring by itself may not materially improve the housing prospects of the less well off in rural areas.
