Can’t wait to see some of the shitholes that will be appearing on daft.
I wonder will they have a sub category for Sheds?

If we are heading down this route they need to permit trailor parks for permanent living

I’m not coming out to say the modular homes suggestion is great, I really dislike it, HOWEVER:
1. I expect we’re going to see a negligible amount of homeowners take advantage of this to install habitable dwellings in their gardens, because they’ll be put off by the cost. There will of course be more than a few grifters who will remove the mower from their existing sheds before throwing the space up on daft, because humans can’t help being dicks
2. If any homeowners do choose to approach this professionally, install decent accommodation, and rent it to someone currently struggling with finding accommodation, will Holly Cairns say that’s a bad thing?
Housing supply is f**ked and is simply not fixable with a magic wand. This may ultimately be a daft proposal, generating more heat than light, but people need places to live. We have to at least try some interim proposals

I’m a fan of them but perhaps I am ignorant. I could use my parents back yard for a modular house. Don’t have to jump through so many hoops to do so. I’d be mortgage free too for a decent size house (without brick work), in my own way.

This is absolutely mad. I have the room in my garden for a modular home and I see I could get 14k tax free in rent per annum. My mortgage repayments per year is around 13,500 so I could effectively move someone into a large shed in my garden and get them to pay my mortgage for me?
I’m not a scumbag landlord and shall not be doing this, just for clarity.

As a everyday individual this will probably help, even if for some people it’s not ideal because it’s a license the truth is there’s thousands of people living under license just fine at the moment. As a landlord I don’t actually want this as it’ll put downward pressure on me if there’s more supply.

This seems a crazy idea to me and just sets rent at 1200 per month tax free for a shanti which will drive up rent on normal properties
Beds in sheds is really what it is

just let people build, and rent it out if they want to rent it omg. like imagine doing this with food.
“we have a shortage of food, we need more”
“okay, we are gonna allow more people grow and sell food, as long as it’s safe for consumption”
“omg do you want people to be food slaves? no the food has to meet incredibly high standards, and has to be grown for yourself to eat, or sold near cost to charities or the state to manage you gets the food and we will modulate the cost based on income, also you’ll have to fill out a few hundred pages of paperwork and we will severely limit where you can even grow food so we don’t have too farm density or rural farms or farm sprawl”
we are going to try everything before we just make it simple, relatively easy, and profitable, to build lots of housing units (houses, apartments, modular “sheds” where people want to live.
as someone living in a tiny old childhood bedroom in rural ireland, i am happy to suffer the indignity of having my own warm affordable private “shed” in an area where i want to live. i shall carry the burden.

Unpopular opinion: I have heard of a couple of people who started living in their parents garden room (both were students or young adults who moved home) and they got into trouble with the planners after neighbours complained, so this move will help certain people and it’s likely going on already under the radar so no harm is making it legal.
