Difficulty paying your rent
You must pay your rent regularly. If you fall behind with your
rent, we will take action to recover the money. This could lead to
you:
- Having to pay court costs
- Not being able to get credit; or
- Being evicted from your home
We do appreciate that you can face short-term difficulties as a
result of sickness, unemployment or other personal problems.
If you cannot pay your rent, the first thing you should do is
contact us. We will be able to advise you about the possibility of
getting benefits or making other arrangements to help you. We can
also agree with you a way, that you can afford, to repay the
outstanding amount. Our leaflet 'Get in touch not in
debt' gives further details.
We can also provide additional help if your debts are getting
out of hand;
