Transforming Private Landlords: Housing, Markets and Public Policy

“This is a fruitful read for anybody interested in housing and housing policy. With their well-informed and empirically grounded case study on British housing policy over the past three decades, Tony Cook and Peter Kemp highlight the transformation of landlord structure as a crucial field of governance in the field of housing.”  (International Journal of Urban & Regional Research, 19 August 2013)

“Notwithstanding these observations, the book is a must for those of us with an interest in the PRS andI thoroughly recommend it.”  (Housing Studies, 21 September 2012)

"This is an essential text for any housing academic - undergraduate, postgraduate and upwards - or policy practitioner seeking a basic understanding of the history and workings of the private rented sector (PRS) ... However, in its definitive summary of the authors' research over the past three decades, the text constitutes a worthy full stop, and signals the prospect of a move forward into new questions, themes, data and analytical frameworks." (International Journal of Housing Policy, 1 December 2011)
