Rent Consultation 2026/27
Tenant consultation is an important part of any rent review and must take place whenever we are proposing an increase to the rent you pay. If you have not already done so, please complete and submit the following rent consultation form before, 2nd February 2026.
All returned forms will be entered into a prize draw with the winner receiving a £50 voucher for a local food store.
Proposed Rent Increase
This year we are consulting on the following options:
Option 1 4.2% 1.0.% above the CPI figure for November 2025
Option 2 5.0% 1.8% above the CPI figure for November 2025
Option 3 5.5% 2.3% above the CPI figure for November 2025
The proposed increase will be applied from 1st April 2026.
The final rent increase may not necessarily be one of the above options, but these are indicative options. However, following an internal review of our anticipated costs for 2026/27 we are recommending a proposed increase of 5.0% so that we can finance a planned component replacement programme of approximately £450,000.
Please note any increase above 5.0% should allow us to accelerate this programme while an increase limited to 1.0% above the CPI inflation rate for November 2025 will reduce this budget by an estimated £30k.
