Landlord rent solutions service
We have set up a free rent solutions service covering Cambridgeshire & Peterborough City to help prevent homelessness. This is as a part of a network of homelessness prevention trailblazers across England.
Our rent solutions service
We offer specialist assistance and advice to agents, landlords, and tenants. This advice helps to maintain tenancies and resolve tenancy problems that may lead to evictions. If we are not able to help directly, there are other services that we can refer you to.
There is a wide range of topics that we can help with, including:
- Housing Benefit claims, including applications for Discretionary Housing Payments
- debt problems that could lead to rent arrears
- eviction & harassment
- landlord responsibilities
