Planning a Move
If you are considering moving home it is important that you make your plans well in advance. Moving suddenly may result in making a wrong decision. It is important to consider which options are available to you; taking into account your current circumstances and the finances you have available both long and short term. Housing officers are available to provide ongoing advice, support and assistance to ensure you make informed decisions regarding your next move.
Your reasons for wanting to move home will be an important factor in making decisions. They might include:
- Threat of homelessness
- Financial issues
- Relationship breakdown
- Domestic abuse
- Landlord / tenant issues
- Neighbour nuisance or harassment
- Eviction
