There is a nomadic lifestyle in Britain that sees around 10,000 people rent in unoccupied properties for a reduced rate.
Kevin Harris, 54, has saved hundreds each month by becoming a property guardian, although he accepts it is not for everyone.
He has lived in seven different properties in the last seven years, including police stations, hunting lodges and ex-hostels, with fellow guardians.
Kevin decided to take on this lifestyle after a bad experience with his landlord when privately renting. You can read his full story below.
