Chas Housing Aid has specialist housing advisers who can offer you free, expert advice on a wide range of housing issues.  Our services are open  to anyone who needs it, including advice on:    

• Homelessnes
• Rent or mortgage problems  
• Problems with your Landlord  
• Disrepair 
• Housing Benefit 

Our aim is to prevent homelessness and we can do this by:
 
Dealing with Housing or Council Tax Benefit problems from chasing up delays in claims being processed, appealing against adverse decisions and taking cases on to tribunal.

Negotiating with landlords, both social landlords and private, regarding making payments of rent arrears 
 
Negotiating with mortgage lenders 
 
We are also able to represent clients who have rent and mortgage arrears at County Court if we have suitable prior notice. (Note, if we cannot see you before the hearing there will be representatives from Keyhouse Advice Service at Bradford County Court on Mondays to cover mortgage hearings and every other Wednesday for rent hearings) 
We do not have our own accommodation but can provide advice on how to find accommodation and the options that are available to you.

Appointments are currently available to see Housing Advisers. Monday to Friday. Unfortunately, we are not able to see drop-in clients at the moment.

Our Housing Advisers can provide telephone advice on some housing related matters on Tuesday and Thursday afternoons between 2 and 4pm. If through the course of the telephone advice it is apparent that a face to face appointment is necessary, this can be organised.

We can arrange for home visits for clients who are physically unable to come to our office.
