HOUSING Crisis! There is a limited amount of houses out there and finding I needed to find another home to live I didn’t realise how difficult that journey may turn out to be.

With salaries being taken into account, the estate agent said a guarantor would be needed with an income of £43,000 per year, which was not possible.

For top up of housing benefit a guarantor will be needed.

I was surprised as this is guaranteed money. Landlords can choose if they want housing benefit tenants – interesting for what may lay ahead of us.
