Please join us at patreon.com/tortoiseshack In this Reboot Republic, Rory discusses the new (at least new to Ireland) affordable rental housing model: cost rental housing. He talks with authors of the new report, The Impact of Cost Rental Housing: Security, Affordability and Place, Dr Michael Byrne, Dr Cian O Callaghan and Rosemary Hennigan of Tuath Housing and Aengus Hennessy a resident in new cost rental housing. Cost rental housing is public housing for those earning incomes above social housing thresholds, and new tenants highlight its importance for giving real long term stability, in contrast to private rental, the ability to put down roots and be part of community. We discuss challenges around making it genuinely affordable and how the Government can and should expand this through increased investment.
