Rehousing service standards

When you tell us you are moving out, we will:

  • Arrange and carry out an inspection of your property before you move out
  • Let you know of any repairs that you have to carry out before you move out and also the amount you will be recharged if you do not carry out this work
  • Prepare a property fact sheet that includes a photograph of the property, room dimensions and information about local services i.e. post offices, bus stops etc
  • Market the property to find a new tenant within 1 day of you telling us that you are moving out

When a home becomes empty, we will:

  • Carry out essential repairs to the property
  • Arrange and carry out accompanied viewings at a agreed time with you
  • Verbally offer the property to you and confirm the offer in writing within one working day
  • Arrange a meeting with you to handover the keys and to sign the tenancy agreement for your new home

We will monitor these standards standards by:

  • Carrying out a monthly satisfaction survey after the new tenant moves in
  • Monthly monitoring of formal complaints received
  • Reviewing five percent of all allocations made to ensure that meets our policy, procedure and these standards
  • Regular review of appeals made
