What should I do if I change my name?
If you change your name by deed poll or because of marriage, civil partnership, the end of a civil partnership or divorce you must change your name on your tenancy. You’ll need to show us the official documents to prove that you’ve changed your name.
Please get in touch with us through the myWHA app or portal, or email us at [email protected].
You can find out more in our Tenancy Changes Policy.
Should I tell you if a tenant dies?
If someone in your household dies who is named on the tenancy, please tell us. We will need to update the tenancy.
You can find out more in our Tenancy Changes Policy.
What is the Right to Acquire scheme?
Right to Acquire is a government scheme that gives tenants who have held an assured tenancy with any public sector landlord for at least three years the right to acquire their home with a discount. The longer you’ve been a tenant the more discount you’re entitled to.
If you’re interested in the scheme, please get in touch with us to see if you’re eligible. There are exceptions and some houses cannot be bought.
The government also has a similar Right to Buy scheme, but this is only open to tenants in local authority housing.
You can find out more about Right to Acquire on the government’s website, gov.uk.
