We intervene early and offer support to create sustainable tenancies. 

Starting tenancies

This section is about information for new tenants. It includes two check lists. The new tenant checklist covers information that most new tenants need to know (it can also be used to capture information about them). The sign-up checklist covers the essential steps for the “sign up.”  There are also “sign up packs” which include the paper documents needed.

Target rents

Rents for individual properties are set at target rents on re-let to new tenants (tenants who are not currently a council tenant).

Any re-lets for current council tenants, successions, assignments, domestic violence cases and mutual exchanges (between Camden council tenants) will have the gross rent.

To find out the target rent on Northgate:
