“…Faced with high uncertainty and housing insecurity, new migrants often live in HMO (Pemberton, 2009;Perry, 2012;Robinson, 2010), and asylum seekers are placed in HMO under Home Office sub-contracts (NAO, 2014). Multi-occupancy residents in the PRS have characteristically fewer housing and social security rights, including limited or no housing benefit entitlement and limited eligibility for social housing as well as lack of choice (Ford, 2002;Kemp, 2011;Lister, 2006;Pemberton, 2009;Robinson, 2010), compared with the population living in single-family homes. Limited choice also applies to people who have steady jobs and good social status ("young professionals"), but the local housing costs are prohibitive.…”

Energy vulnerability in multiple occupancy housing: a problem that policy forgot

Housing in Multiple Occupancy (HMO) includes some of the UK's worst housing stock. The tenants typically have reduced housing and social security rights, as well as reduced control and sometimes absence of basic domestic energy services. Yet, HMO is largely absent from UK policies governing energy efficiency and fuel poverty. Energy vulnerability in HMO is exacerbated by a lack of representation and recognition of HMO in official systems and statistics on the housing stock, socio-cultural preferences for traditional single-family homes, and widespread tenure prejudice based on negative imagery about HMO. An indicative typology of HMO is proposed based on five main tenancy scenarios: illegal/informal; rooms in a shared house; group of sharers; bedsits; and poorly converted flats. The purpose is to improve the recognition and inclusion of the variegated HMO sector in policy frameworks and public debates in a more nuanced fashion.

“…This situation may be exacerbated by new 'Right to Rent' procedures that position landlords as regulatory agents in their own right. There are also issues related to the affordability of the sector, particularly given the growing numbers of low-income households that are navigating the PRS (Kemp, 2011).…”

The convergence, divergence and changing geography of regulation in the UK's private rented sector

The role of the private rented sector (PRS) has grown in many parts of Europe in recent years, both as an increasing component of housing systems and as the effects of the global financial crisis become apparent. In the UK, the role of the sector has deepened and is increasingly relied upon to house growing and diverse proportions of the population for longer periods of time. This has renewed interest in the regulation of the sector in order to improve its suitability and desirability for tenants. There has been increasing convergence in regulatory approaches between some jurisdictions of the UK, such as Scotland and Wales, and divergence between others, such as England where regulation remains a residual policy concern. Using examples of tenure security, landlord regulation and affordability, this policy review seeks to highlight the emerging differences in the way the PRS is regulated within the UK. It argues that the likely consequence of these differences is that there may be increased variation in the effects and experience of renting in the PRS, in relation to eviction protections and landlord management standards. The paper shows how jurisdictions in Scotland, and to a lesser extent Wales and Northern Ireland, are moving towards models of regulation that more closely mirror those used in Western European countries, with England becoming an outlier in the way in which it regulates private renting.

“…Nekateri avtorji se strinjajo, da je rezidualizacija ZNS posledica sprememb v stanovanjski politiki, ki je dajala prednost in vse bolj spodbujala lastništvo stanovanj kot bolj zaželeno pravico do posesti stanovanja od najema (glej na primer Harloe, 1985;Ruonavaara, 1990;Forrest in Murie, 1991;Dieleman in Everaers, 1994;Rossi in Weber, 1996;Elsinga in Hoekstra, 2005;Stamso, 2008;De Decker in Dewilde, 2010;Doling in Ronald, 2010;Kleinhans in Elsinga, 2010;Toussaint, 2011). Kljub obdobju splošnega upada je ZNS v zahodnoevropskih državah vedno imel pomembno vlogo in pričakuje se, da bo tako tudi v prihodnje (Gray in McAnulty, 2008;Hulse in Pawson, 2010;Kemp, 2011;Crook in Kemp, 2014). V Veliki Britaniji naj bi se ta sektor po določenem obdobju upada celo povečal (Kemp, 2015).…”

Je zasebni najemni sektor v Sloveniji zaželen? Proučitev vloge države pri njegovem razvoju

Je zasebni najemni sektor v Sloveniji zaželen? Proučitev vloge države pri njegovem razvojuZasebni najemni sektor (ZNS) v Sloveniji vse od konca druge svetovne vojne deluje brez uradnega priznanja in podpore vladne politike. V članku so proučeni razlogi, zaradi katerih pristojne državne ustanove ta sektor vztrajno zapostavljajo. Avtor v razpravi najprej na kratko pregleda razvoj državne stanovanjske politike, ki je vse od obsežnih stanovanjskih reform v začetku 90. let 20. stoletja globoko zakoreninjena v filozofijo »pristopa omogočanja«. Na podlagi izsledkov ankete, opravljene med ključnimi državnimi ustanovami, odgovornimi za stanovanjsko oskrbo, je proučena vloga države pri razvoju zasebnega najemnega sektorja po letu 1991, ko je Slovenija uvedla sistem tržnega gospodarstva. Odgovori anketirancev sicer kažejo, da se proučevane državne ustanove na splošno zavedajo vseh pomanjkljivosti trenutnega zasebnega najemnega sektorja, vendar do zdaj še niso resno podprle njegovega razvoja. Avtor zato sklepa, da lahko dejstvo, da potrebni ukrepi, ki bi podprli razvoj in formalno delovanje zasebnega najemnega sektorja, še niso bili sprejeti, pripišemo nenaklonjenosti oblikovalcev politike do tega sektorja.Ključne besede: zasebni najemni sektor, struktura pravic do posesti stanovanja, stanovanjska politika, načelo omogočanja, državne ustanove, Slovenija
