Housing Query
Dear Allerdale Borough Council,
Q1. We are looking to find out if the council has done either of the models below for housing.
• Sale and Leaseback – Leaseback, short for "sale-and-leaseback", is a financial transaction in which one sells an asset and leases it back for the long term; therefore, one continues to be able to use the asset but no longer owns it.
• Income Strip – At its simplest, an income strip investment combines a strong tenant covenant, with a long-term lease and a forward funding arrangement to give an investor a stable and secure income stream. The strong tenant covenant frequently comes from the public sector such as local councils, and the long-term lease often runs between 30 and 50 years.
Q2. Can you advise of weekly rents paid for the following?
1. Temporary accommodation for homeless relief
2. Extra care housing (not including any service charge elements, just the core rent)
3. Housing or beds for adults with complex care needs
Q3. Does the council own any land or disused buildings that they would be prepared to sell and or re purpose?
Yours faithfully,
Debbie Connal
Allerdale Borough Council no longer holds any housing stock on its own however, there are a number of housing Associations that operate in our district. Further details are available on our website: https://www.allerdale.gov.uk/en/housing/...
Adult social care is dealt with by Cumbria County Council.
