	It is clear that there is a growing demand for private rented housing leading to growth in this sector. However, much of that growth has been driven by individual landlords with small portfolios, who represent the majority of the sector. There are only a relatively small number of larger landlords - only 1% own more than 10 properties, according to the UK government - and, critically, growth in the rented sector has generally not contributed to the supply of new housing. The government has clearly signalled the importance it attaches to the expansion of the sector; arguably however, it must do more to unleash the sector's true potential.

Overall there was an increase in 2013 in the number of applicants across the UK of 1.9% when compared to 2012, according to the Independent Commission on Fees (ICF). Recent figures show that overall 'young' demand has increased in 2014 for all countries of the UK; in England to 43 per cent, 54 per cent in Northern Ireland, 36 per cent in Scotland and 37 per cent in Wales. These figures, published by the Universities and Colleges Admissions Service (UCAS), are the highest recorded levels in each country. As a result, more students are interested in higher education, and by implication, there is stronger demand for private rented housing as the universities cannot provide bed spaces for all students.	+	In addition, there are an increasing number of students willing to enrol in UK universities.

	In its recent report on the private rented sector, the House of Commons heard from a number of witnesses that increasing supply was an important way to raise standards and tackle issues of affordability in the sector. “Many of the problems in the Private rented sector are as a result of the significant lack of supply and therefore lack of choice for the consumer”, added Grainger plc, an institutional investor.
