How do we set your rent?

We have a Rent policy and procedure that sets out the rent levels we charge.

We aim to:
  • Charge rents that our tenants and people who apply to us for housing can afford to pay.
  • Have enough money to pay for the maintenance and repair of our houses, now and in the future.
  • Pay for a high quality management service
  • Pay back loans that we have borrowed to pay for part of the costs of buying our houses.

Each year we review the rents we charge. We usually increase rents by the December rate of Inflation plus 1%.

We will always give you at least 28 days notice of any rent increase.

Only one increase each year is allowed, unless it is linked to improvements we have made to your home.

Our mission is to create neighbourhoods where people want to live
