9. The ‘completely broken’ rental market and ‘disaster for first-time buyers’ | Purple Bricks
The rental market is “completely broken” and is a “disaster for first-time buyers” unless they can rely on the bank of mum and dad, the chief executive of Purplebricks has said.
In the latest episode of Boardroom Uncovered, Sam Mitchell, speaking with City AM's UK Editor, Jon Robinson, said that even that method of getting on the housing ladder is “becoming much harder”.
The CEO also revealed how he bought his first house after joining two friends, getting £10,000 loans to buy cars and a three-bedroom house in London in their early 20s – plus more.
Boardroom Uncovered is also available in video format as well.
