Tenants on Benefits (DSS)

  • Can I advertise 'No DSS'? Is it illegal or discrimination?
  • Can my tenant’s benefits be paid directly to me?
  • I need to be paid in advance – are benefits paid in arrears or in advance?
  • Will I have to pay the council all the rent I’ve collected if the tenant has been claiming benefits fraudulently?
  • If I let to a tenant on benefits, how will they pay the rent if their circumstances change over the course of the tenancy?
