Coming soon… HomeSwap Direct

From April 2012 we’ll be signing up to the Government’s new online HomeSwap Direct scheme. The initiative allows social housing tenants looking to move home, whether for a job, to be near family or to a home more suited to their needs, to see all available properties throughout the UK.

HomeSwap Direct brings together four internet-based providers of mutual exchange services (HomeSwapper, House Exchange, Abritas and Locata) to offer people more choice over where they live. At the heart of the scheme is a new requirement for landlords to sign-up to web-based services which give tenants access to all available swaps regardless of whose database they are registered in.

For more details, please visit the Communities and Local Government website.

Find out more about Rent to buy – go to our Catalyst Homes website.

Intermediate renting

Intermediate renting offers either NewBuild or refurnished properties at a discounted rate for those who do not qualify for social housing. The rent is normally discounted by 20% of current market value. The reduced rent will give you an opportunity to save for a deposit ready for when you purchase your next property. Intermediate rental properties are available on an assured short-hold tenancy, usually for an initial period of six months, which is reviewed regularly.

Key worker rented homes

We provide a range of affordable single rented rooms with shared facilities for public sector key workers. The homes are located across London and are let on a furnished basis on assured shorthold tenancies.
