If you're struggling to pay, we can help. Please contact us as soon as possible.
Your rent reference

How often do I have to pay rent?
You can pay your rent:
- every week
- every two weeks for the coming two weeks, or
- every month for the coming month
A payment table is available to show you the dates you must pay your rent by to avoid falling behind with your payments.
We charge you rent for 48 weeks of the year, rather than 52 weeks. This means that there are two weeks in summer and two weeks at Christmas when you do not have to pay rent.
Please note - if your rent account is in arrears you should continue to make payments during the rent-free periods to reduce the arrears.
