This has become an increasingly popular option, with more people applying for homes than properties becoming available. Therefore, it is important that you are flexible about the type and location of the property you are willing to live in. 

Note about affordability: 

Stockport Homes carries out affordability assessments for applicants before any new tenancy will be started. This is to ensure that the new tenant can afford the property and receive some money advice if this is appropriate. All applicants will need to provide details of all their income including benefits for this to happen and failure to provide the information could result in an offer being withdrawn. 

Stockport Homes encourages applications regardless of sex, race, disability, age, sexual orientation, gender reassignment, religion or belief, marital status, or pregnancy and maternity.
