Q It is not so much about the affordability assessments. When a tenant applies for a property, the agent will usually, as part of the requirements of the landlord’s insurer, put them through a credit check, and if they do not meet the standard that that insurer requires, the insurer will say, “You won’t get insurance if this tenant is occupying the property.” Therefore, that is the end of that discussion. I am interested in the extent to which you have come across that as an issue.
