Social rents have fallen “significantly” in past decade, says Housing Forum
Membership body pleased to see rent convergence proposals
Social rent levels have fallen “quite significantly” in real terms over the past 10 years, according to the Housing Forum.
Analysis by the membership body shows average social rents were £92.30 a week in 2014. If they had kept up with inflation they would be £123.73, or £129.70 if they kept up with earnings. However, they are lower than this at £109.44 in 2023/24.
