Having problems paying your rent?
Rent is a priority debt.
If you do not pay your rent or make arrangements with us
to clear any arrears you could lose your home.
However, the last thing that we want to do is
evict you from your home. If you are having difficulties meeting
your rent payments remember that we are here to help and advise
you. It is important that you contact the Income team
immediately if you are struggling to pay your rent.

You can see a Housing Officer to discuss the problems you are
having with your rent payments. Your Housing Officer will arrange
for you to pay what you owe in regular manageable accounts. They
will take into account how much money you owe and how much money
you have coming in to the house after you have paid priority bills.
They will help you to plan your finances and advise you of any
benefits you could claim.
It is important that you get help as soon as
possible in order to avoid getting too far behind with your
payments.
Do not ignore any of the letters that
we send you because the sooner you get in touch the easier it will
be for us to help
