Private Rented Housing
Last updated | 25/04/2007
The private rented sector is an important part of the housing system in the Perth & Kinross area, accommodating around 15% of all households (Census 2001). This is about the same as the proportion of households living in Council housing.
There are many professional, conscientious private landlords operating in the area who offer a choice of quality properties for rent. However, there are also landlords who act in a less professional manner which, in some cases, may be due to a lack of knowledge about their responsibilities towards their tenants.
This section is intended to be a useful resource for private tenants, private landlords and those considering private renting.
