Intermediate housing is targeted towards those who cannot afford market housing, but who are not a priority for social housing – ‘the squeezed middle’.  It is a form of affordable housing considered appropriate for those households currently in the private rental market paying more than 30% of their income in rent.  It provides an opportunity for those in Band C of the Council’s waiting list (i.e. non-priority) to access more affordable housing.

Please tell what you think of our draft Intermediate Housing Policy. A copy of the draft policy can be downloaded below. We are keen to hear the views from our residents, housing sector colleagues and developers but the survey is open to anyone who is interested.

Thanks for taking part
