Rent rises in 2009

In April, rents went up which we know hit people hard. But, like all social landlords, we charge rents using rules which the Government sets.

 

The Government wants council and housing association rents to be fairer and to stay affordable in the future.  

 

By 2012, rents on all social housing homes should be based on their size and condition and the local area they're in.    

 

To protect tenants from rent going up by a lot in a short time, the Government is giving landlords until 2012 to hit the new target rents.

 

For more information about rent rises, read the service guide on this page, check out our questions and answers page or call your supported housing team.
