The charges cover the cost of obtaining relevant data, any manual checks that are required, and ongoing monitoring.

Eligibility Criteria: - To be eligible for affordable housing, you must have both a local connection and a housing need along with the right to reside in the UK. Applicants should not currently own a home when applying. You will also need to meet any specific criteria for the individual development - please contact our housing team for further information.

Local connection - you must have lived within Cheshire East for a set amount of time, or have a permanent contract of employment in the area, or have an immediate family member (sibling/parent/child) who lives here.

Housing need - you must be able to show that your household income means you cannot afford the property at its current open market value, but can afford the property with the discount applied based on your circumstances, mortgage ability and deposit level. Priority will be given to applicants with dependent children for affordable homes with three bedrooms.

Right to reside in the UK - you will need to have the right to reside in the UK because the scheme is a subsidised benefit.

*Please note: If you have previously applied and were unsuccessful, you will need to send a new application form and relevant supporting documents for the property you wish to be considered for, as applications are for a specific property for sale and not the scheme as a whole.
