[Mr Kobayashi]

I think you envy people's wealth. Price increases in rent are driven by a lack of housing. Or empty homes, second homes. Not landlords renting properties.

So if landlords A puts a property on the market for X amount and is able to get a tenant in at that amount, it has no effect on Landlord B when he takes a look and sees he can get the same and puts his prices up accordingly?

If I envied them wouldn't I want to copy them?

I regard many BTL landlords as pathetic and vacuous. Spend your money enjoy it. Create a real business. Even setting up an Airbnb is a more worthwhile pursuit than landlordism.

Has a landlord treated you badly in the past is that why you hate them

I know you won’t give your background away

But what have you invested in ? And how did you go about it as I’m all about learning

I don't hate them, I just regard them as pathetic. It's a lazy and unimaginative way to make money and it causes social problems.

I do hate NIMBYs.

PIP “rental allowance” you say?
Tell me more.
I’ve been a DLA/PIP adviser for nearly thirty years and I’ve never heard of it.

Good for you, well done, I don't have your extensive knowledge of welfare benefits but you're being disingenuous if you don't accept some claimants can get Universal Payments paid direct to them and are responsible to pay Landlords which many didn't.

I'm not surprised your's an adviser in this field, you abuse a lot of posters on here who have a different opinion, you think you're a smart arse but I'm not buying it, bet you're a right barrel of laughs.

Besides my workplace pension I don't have any investments.

I've made some modest sales through a hobby but I was running at break even at best but I knew that when I started it.

PIP has nothing to do with benefits that help with rent though, it's a disability payment and completely irrelevant to the point you was making.

Most claimants get universal credit paid to them. In most places the housing element of UC isn't enough to pay the rent without topping it up with the money from their remaining benefits.

So makes sense to make one combined payment.

When universal credit can be paid direct to a landlord - Shelter England

Your universal credit (UC) housing element could be paid direct to your landlord if you have missed rent payments or find it hard to budget.

Universal Credit: Landlord request for a managed payment or rent arrears deduction

If a tenant is having difficulty paying their rent, apply for a Managed Payment to Landlord using the Apply for a Direct Rent Payment service to request payment of rent from a tenant’s Universal Credit.
