Rents
At Apple we will create bespoke rents for the properties our housing service partners submit. It is one of the principal conditions of the tenancy agreement that the tenant pays the rent due. We will support the tenant to claim their full entitlement of Housing Benefit by liaising with the local authority, support provider and other organisations to help the tenant consistently pay their rent in full and on time
Our Standards
Apple and our Housing Service Partner provide additional services to its tenants, it will add service charges to the rent charged and bill these as part of the rent. Service charges are set to cover the cost of providing and managing the services that the tenant or scheme requires, and Apple endeavours to recover the full cost of HB eligible services, these may include but not limited to:
Cleaning of Communal areas
Window Cleaning
Pest Control
Heating and lighting in communal areas.
Periodic redecoration
Provision of furniture.
