The Supply and Acquisitions Service commissions private sector accommodation and helps private landlords secure short and long term tenancy agreements.

Because we recognise the important role landlords play in providing homes for local people we set up the Landlord Cash Incentive Scheme. The scheme provides a financial incentive to landlords while helping to offset the Council's reliance on temporary accommodation.

Landlords who join the scheme will receive up to £6,680 per property and a guaranteed rental income for a fixed tenure (6, 12, 24, 36 months).

We will also provide: 

• Free inspection of each property to ensure it meets Housing Health and Safety Rating System Standards (HHSRS) and advice on how to bring it up to the right standard
• Help to find the right tenants by completing suitability and affordability reviews
• Support and advice to help resolve any issues such as rent arrears if they arise
• 12 months free membership with the National Residential Landlords Association (NRLA)

The Supply and Acquisitions Service is fully trained in sourcing and giving advice on private sector properties and one of our key aims is to ensure that private landlords’ assets remain protected.
