How our rents compare

As your landlord, we have a statutory obligation to provide you with information about how the rent you pay compares to the rent paid by residents of other housing assocations in West Dorset.

To make it easier for you to make a comparison between the different rents, they are all calculated as if they were paid weekly over 52 weeks. This is regardless of whether you pay over 48 or 52 weeks of the year, so you may not recognise the actual rent that you pay within the information shown.

"Net rent" is the amount that you have to pay us less any service charge. The service charge pays for things such as grass cutting in communal areas or sheltered housing services.
