As the #housingcrisis continues to be compounder by #inflation & the #Costoflivingcrisis you'll be unsurprised to know that #homelessness is rising....
While some of this is driven by increases in #rent (becoming unaffordable), the main driver is due to #landlords wishing to vacate the property either to see or to re-let the property under different conditions (up 27% in Q1/23).
And, 'no fault' forced evictions are up 41%, driving people into council's temporary accommodation.
Its inhumane!
