Scottish tenants happier than English ones

Following a review of the private rented sector by the Scottish government Scottish tenants are considered marginally more happy with their landlords than tenants south of the border. It found 85 per cent of tenants were either very satisfied or fairly satisfied with their landlord and property, compared with 83 per cent in England. In Scotland, where problems do occur they tend to be related to response times for repairs, and issues on deposits, with only a small minority suffering from poor standards.
