Private Sector Options

 

Private Sector Options

A mother and child
You could find a home in the private sector

If there is a strong likelihood that you will become homeless and we think that you may fall into one of our priority groups we may be able to give you financial assistance and practical help with finding a property to rent in the private sector.


Avoid becoming homeless
By choosing this option you do not become homeless and therefore avoid all the negative effects of homelessness and living in temporary accommodation.
You choose
You can choose the area that you live in rather than have to move to an area we have chosen, perhaps East London. You also avoid the very high rents charged in temporary accommodation.

Two schemes
There are two schemes available, the Home Finders Scheme and the Landlord Incentive Scheme.
