More than half of renters ‘finding it hard to make their housing payments’

More than half – 55% – of renters say they are finding it difficult to make their housing payments, according to a survey.

Just over a third – 35% – of homeowners with a mortgage said they find it difficult to afford their mortgage payments, the YouGov research found.

The poll of more than 2,000 people across Britain also asked people how hard they think it will be in 12 months to make their housing payments.

Just over half – 51% – of renters expect to find it difficult, as do 47% of mortgage holders, the findings reveal.
