Private Rented Sector Offer (PRSO)

Refusal

We will not offer a settled home in the private rented sector if:

  • the household will be vulnerable
  • the household requires supported accommodation
  • the household is unlikely to be able to sustain a private rented tenancy
  • If a member of the household will need adaptations to the property to meet their needs.

What if a private rented sector offer is turned down?

Homeless households will only be made one offer of suitable accommodation. If the accommodation is refused, the household have the right to a review. If the accommodation is found to be suitable, the Council will no longer have the duty to house them.
