Moreover, introducing specialised insurance products may have the unintended consequence of discouraging landlords from letting to those specific groups. Such products are unlikely to make renting more attractive; instead, they may result in higher premiums or more complex terms that landlords will interpret as a reason to avoid letting properties to a tenant altogether. We must not jeopardise the gains in the Bill by introducing measures that risk creating an unequal and discriminatory rental system. The future of the rental market should be one in which responsible landlords and renters co-exist on an equal footing, supported by policies that prioritise fairness and dignity.
