Catch up or get ahead during rent free week - Monday 30th August to Sunday 5th September

There are two weeks each year where we don't charge tenants any rent.

The first of these 'rent-free weeks' is coming up from Monday 30th August to Sunday 5th September.

But tenants shouldn't let this opportunity slip away! They can use this week to get ahead of the game or catch up on arrears.

If a tenant is in rent arrears, they MUST pay their rent during this week. This will help them catch up on their payments and even balance their rent account. A balanced rent account means:

• You don't owe us any money
• You are not at risk of eviction
• You have the chance to go into a prize draw every three months to win £100

If a tenant is not in arrears, then 'rent-free week' is a chance for them to get ahead of the game and start paying a week in advance.

If tenants pay by Direct Debit they don't have to worry as their weekly payments are calculated to take into account rent-free weeks.
