Rent Consultation 2026/27
Each year we consult you, our tenants, on the rent we are considering charging for the following year. We listen to, value and act on the views of our tenants and we encourage you to share your thoughts on the proposed rent increase. All responses to the consultation will be considered by the Association’s Board of Management who will use what you have told us to inform their decision on the rent increase for April 2026 at their meeting in February 2026. Alongside the work on our draft budget for 2026/27, we are consulting you on a rent increase of 4.5% to take effect from 1st April 2026. Increasing rents is not a decision taken lightly and the consultation document explains why this is the lowest increase possible to maintain the current level of service and spend on your homes.
