Tenancy and Estate Information

A1 Housing grants two types of tenancy – secure or introductory. If you are a tenant of A1 Housing or other social landlord and are transferring, then you will be offered a secure tenancy. If you are not currently a tenant of a social landlord then you will be offered an introductory tenancy. An introductory tenancy lasts for 12 months, after which it becomes secure provided that there have been no problems. An introductory tenant has fewer rights and it is easier for A1 Housing to get the property back during the first 12 months, it is likened to having a probationary period to ensure that new tenants stick to the terms of their tenancy agreement.

The rights and obligations of both Introductory and Secure tenants are detailed in our tenancy agreement -please click Tenancy Agreement.

Neighbourhood Housing Officers

They also inspect your estate and offer advice on any issue about your tenancy. To find out your Neighbourhood Housing Officer, click on the following:

Neighbour problems are also dealt with by the Neighbourhood Housing Officer and more information can be found in the section on Anti Social Behaviour -Neighbours & You. If any tenant breaches their tenancy conditions, they will be given a warning under a 'Traffic Light System', for further details of this please click here

The Neighbourhood Housing Officers carry out an Estate Inspection for each A1 Housing estate. Tenants and residents are invited to the Estate Inspections, along with the people who undertake the grounds maintenance and cleaning of flats.
