Landlords welcome Government 'green loan' proposals

3 March 2010

Private renters and landlords should benefit greatly from the latest Government plans to encourage householders to make their homes warmer and cheaper, according to the National Landlords Association (NLA), the leading representative body for private-residential landlords in the UK.

Chris Norris, Policy Manager, NLA, commenting on the announcement, said:

"It is reassuring that these proposals will be available across all types of tenure. However, privately rented property tends to be older and harder to make more energy efficient. It is hoped these measures will remove some of the barriers to making all accommodation less damaging to the environment."
