Affordable and Social Rent
One Vision Housing is dedicated to providing much-needed social and affordable rental homes across the North West of England. As a housing provider regulated by the Regulator of Social Housing, we prioritise creating inclusive communities by offering quality, secure tenancies at genuinely affordable rates.
Our core focus is on delivering social housing, ensuring that individuals and families have access to stable and reasonably priced homes. We understand the importance of affordable rent in building strong communities and improving lives. While we also offer options like Rent to Buy and limited private rentals, our commitment lies in expanding access to social and affordable housing.
You can find our available social and affordable homes through Choice Based Lettings, where your local provider can assist you. We also list some properties on our website’s property search, though our primary allocation for social housing is managed through Choice Based Lettings to ensure fairness and transparency.
Social rent
We proudly provide quality homes for social rent, offering long-term, affordable tenancy options.
Social rent is set lower than affordable rent homes, which are set at 80% of the market rate.
Our social housing properties are generally advertised through a local Choice Based Lettings provider; this enables customers to bid for properties, with homes being allocated on a priority basis.
Affordable rent
Most of our new homes are let through Affordable Rent. Affordable Rent is set at up to 80% of the market rate. Due to the rental rates for Affordable Rent, customers will find it costs less to rent an Affordable Rent home to letting a private property.
Affordable Rent homes are also allocated on a need basis through a local Choice Based Lettings provider.
