What is a tenancy agreement?

A tenancy agreement is a legal document which is a contract between Fairoak Housing Association and our tenants to enable them to live in one of our supported living homes. It sets out the rights and responsibilities of a tenant and the rights and responsibilities of Fairoak as a landlord. Our Tenancy Agreements are provided in an easy read format and fully explained to new tenants.

Does everyone have the same type of tenancy?

No. Some tenants have assured tenancies and some tenants have assured short hold tenancies depending on which property they live in.

Can I get help to pay the rent?

Paying the rent is very important. If you do not pay the rent you could lose your home. Some people can get help from the government to pay their rent. This is called Housing Benefit.

You have to complete a claim form to get Housing Benefit so you must do this as soon as you decide to move in. Fairoak staff will be happy to help you make a claim for housing benefit.
