After a bit of advice please.
We've lived here for 6 years, but our landlord has just told us he plans to sell the house within the year.
We can't afford another private rent in the area, as he capped ours at way under the market rate. Rentals around here are at least £300 more than we've been paying per month (we realise what a lucky position we've been in all these years).
However, this now leaves us stuck as anything else is unaffordable 😩
I've done a benefits calculation, and we'd be entitled to the housing benefit part of universal credit (currently just on wtc and ctc), however most rentals say they don't accept benefits, and we wouldn't pass an affordability check without 🤔. DH is working full time, just on a low wage, and I'm currently a sahm. Does anyone have any advice?
