Who qualifies for these rooms

  • Supported accommodation. You'll need Universal Credit. Rent is met through benefits, so the listing shows a service charge instead of a rent figure.
  • Transitional accommodation. You'll need Universal Credit, plus at least one of Limited Capability for Work and Work Related Activity, PIP, Carer's Allowance or ESA.
  • Private rooms. Open to anyone. The listing shows the rent, and any service charge is stated separately.

Questions tenants ask about rooms in London

Can I rent a room in London on Universal Credit?

Yes. Supported and benefits only rooms in London are let to tenants whose housing costs are met by Universal Credit. The listing states which benefits you need before you enquire, so you never chase a room you cannot take.

What is the difference between supported and transitional housing in London?

Supported accommodation requires Universal Credit. Transitional accommodation requires Universal Credit plus at least one of LCWRA, PIP, Carers Allowance or ESA. Both cover rent through benefits, so the room listing shows a service charge rather than a rent figure.

How quickly can I move into a room in London?

Every listing shows its available from date. Once you enquire, the provider has one working day to respond, so most tenants hear back the next working day and arrange a viewing from there.

What if there is nothing suitable in London today?

Tell us what you need and we match you as new rooms go live in London. You get an alert the same day a room that fits your benefits and budget is listed.
