This book explores the origins, extent and implications of this
revival in the fortunes of private landlordism. It presents an
in-depth, scholarly analysis of private landlords, the rationales
for and ways in which governments have sought to revitalise
investment in residential lettings, and their success in doing so.
It also assesses the extent to which landlordism has been
transformed in recent years and the lessons for policy that can be
learned from this experience.
The book draws on the extensive research into private landlords
conducted by the authors over the past two decades. This includes
projects funded by the Joseph Rowntree Foundation, the predecessor
departments to the Department for Communities and Local Government,
Scottish Homes, and the Economic and Social Research Council.
It fills a major gap in the literature about an important actor
in housing provision and the built environment. Most of the recent
work on private landlords has been published as research reports
and there is a lack of book length scholarly study aimed at an
academic rather than a policy audience.
Tony Crook is Pro-Vice Chancellor and Professor of Town and
Regional Planning at the University of Sheffield.
Peter Kemp is Barnett Professor of Social Policy at the
University of Oxford and a Fellow of St Cross College.

conducted a succession of quantitative and qualitative studies of
private landlords and are the authors of numerous reports and other
publications on this topic.
