Private Landlord Survey

DCLG is requesting information in relation to a potential upcoming procurement for Private Landlord Survey. The deadline for the RFI response is 17:00 Thursday 1 December. Please submit your response to Niche@crowncommercial.gov.uk. The Government seeks to increase the quality and management of the private rented housing sector. It does this by aiming to retain good landlords in the sector, persuading investors to expand the supply of decent rented homes and by helping the worst landlords perform better or prevent them from operating. The Authority has routinely collected information on private landlords via the Private Landlord Survey (PLS), with surveys run in 2001, 2003, 2006 and 2010. The aim of the PLS is to provide information to help the Authority monitor progress towards these aims and to develop initiatives that meet the needs of different sorts of landlords and tenants.
