Paying your rent

The amount you pay is determined by the size and type of property you live in, and on how much we need to spend on services for all our tenants during the year.

The Government provides direction to social landlords each year regarding the maximum amount that they can increase the rent by.

Housing will set its budget for the year and this is presented to Full Council. Our tenants are then informed of the new charges at least four weeks prior to the change taking effect.
