Pay via Direct Debit

One of the easiest ways to stay on top of your rent is by setting up a Direct Debit. With a set amount arranged to come directly out of your account each month, it means you never need to miss a payment.

You can set up a direct debit in a few simple steps through MyHaltonHome.

Your rent explained

From 4th April 2022, rent and services charges will increase by 4.1% (CPI + 1%) for all homes let to customers on the majority of our tenancies – in accordance with government rent setting policies. For homes let on a shared ownership basis, rent will increase by 5.4% (RPI + 1/2%).  

If you pay a service charge, changes to this will be detailed in a formal letter you will receive in February. 

We have put together a dedicated page explaining the increase, and some detail about how we provide value for money and how we are here to support you if you are facing financial difficulties.
