Rent to Buy
If you don't want to buy right now, we can offer some brand new homes to rent. The rents are about 20% cheaper than those on the open market. Housing Associations are offering more homes on this scheme now that it has become more difficult to raise deposits for mortgages in the light of the credit crunch.
Some homes are being offered on a Rent to Buy basis so that you can rent to begin with and buy a share later within a set time limit. The Housing Associations will apply an affordability test to check that you will be able to afford the rent from the start and that you can afford to buy a share later on.
You will need a month's rent and a deposit at the tenancy start date.

Intermediate Rent
Sometimes referred to as discounted rent, there are some new and re-let homes available to rent. The rents are approximately 20% cheaper than those on the open market, which will enable you to possibly clear any debts or save towards a deposit for a future home purchase.
Typically, you will sign up to a 6 month tenancy, with 1 month's rent held as a deposit. Affordability checks will be carried out to make sure the monthly rent is affordable for your household.
