The building insurance a landlord holds on their property generally forbids renting to asylum seekers. They would need to pay extra for an endorsement allowing this or potentially move to a specialist insurer.

I have no idea if the visas Ukrainians will receive under this scheme classes them as asylum seekers. I also don't know if a UK renter trying to house a Ukrainian under this scheme would cause insurance problems. It would appear to if a landlord wishes to provide an entire dwelling.

I'm sure it's not as straightforward if you're a renter but if you're keen to do it at least make some enquires before simply writing off the idea.

I'm not trying to dissuade people from entering scheme just bringing up an issue that most people, landlords included, probably don't know about.

It would be helpful if the government publish some guidance laying out the process and requirements for renters, landlords and owner occupiers.

Seems Russia is still thinking that when they are finished in Ukraine that sanctions will be lifted. That’s a wild assumption by them..

I know about it and currently have a flat in Edinburgh that I would like to give to the scheme.

I say like to but can't. The way it is just now simply can't be done for me. The current rental for the property is £750pm, I am willing to drop it to £500 which covers the mortgage but only just.
I will hower ever take a hit at the end of the financial year because the mortgage interest is no longer a claimable allowance due to the tax changes a few years ago so will be taxed on the rental income and take a hit I cant offset which I am willing to do.

I am currently trying to get in contact with the council to try and discuss this with a human which is easier said than done if you've ever tried to phone them you will know what I'm talking about.

So the point is the scheme for taking them into your own home can work but LL's like me simply can't take such a big hit, with interest rates set to rise again the division will only widen.
 
I wouldn't have a Ukrainian refugee in my home. Inviting someone in off the streets and giving them a key to your house doesn't sound like a great idea to me.
 
So apparently the FSB was tasked with implementing a coup which would have occurred along with the invasion to swiftly get rid of the government, unfortunately for Putin like everything else in his kleptomanic society these people were mere apparitions much like those soldiers that Afghan commanders pretended existed to pilfer what would have been their salary.

Don't know whether it's true as the source is twitter and there could be many reasons for the alleged house arrests of the FSB's leadership, but it does make some amount of sense.

What you mean you wouldn't use them as a baby sitter for your children?
