my council rent is neither cheap nor subsised it is exactly where the local market says it should be as I suspect most areas will be simply because that is how the LA's and associations set their rent levels ,London possibly being the exception

It will affect every working tenant if it is decided to simply raise rents to include the profit component of private landlords which I think is intended ,that will intern affect private tenants as their rents rise
My stance all through the thread has been that rents for LHA's are very similar if not the same minus the profit component .
