Reported at www.ibtimes.co.uk: Property guardianship is becoming a popular housing solution in the UK, with more than 13,000 people currently living in abandoned buildings to access affordable accommodation.

As property prices continue to soar, the trend of repurposing neglected buildings into homes is also increasing, reflecting a growing demand for cost-effective housing alternatives amidst the ongoing housing crisis.

Individuals willing to accept fewer legal protections can stay in these unoccupied properties at a fraction of traditional rent prices, allowing them to save for future housing.
