BBC flagship news program Panorama investigated moisture and mold issues within the private rental sector before AWAAB laws were made public in March or April this year.
During the programme, Panorama interviewed many tenants at the mold-influenced facilities, including the homes of Rotherham couple Christine and Paul Brown. 
The elderly couple have lived in private rental homes for over 50 years, but the BBC has found damp in every room, finding wallpaper, wet walls, large black mold patches and overwhelming smells.
The couple already had serious health issues. He is a diabetic patient with asthma, angina pectoris, bronchitis and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and moisture is making things worse.
The conditions have deteriorated
The couple began complaining about the home conditions in 2022 and the conditions have worsened since then, with the home being repaired by thousands of pounds worth of repairs. .
The Browns had regular contact with the Savills, but they had no idea who their landlord was. When the Panorama team investigated, they eventually found it ended up falling into £1 billion in funding and ownership of real estate company William Piers Group.
The company belongs to the Piers brothers, one of which, Mark Pears, is the trustee of the British Museum, and is reportedly worth £3 billion. Another Sir Trevor Piers has been knighted for his charity.
I'm sorry to know that Mrs. Brown believes her complaints are somehow ignored. ”
When the BBC approached the company, their managing agent Savills said, “we looked after daily repairs and they were always responding to requests for more expensive repairs quickly.” , Savills added that he will soon be visiting the property to re-examine it.
Savills told the BBC “I'm sorry to know that Mrs Brown believes her complaints are somehow ignored,” and the company said, “I always try to deal with the issue in a timely manner, and we've got 13 different tests and Repair work has been completed. Properties between 2023-2024”.
