成人大片 in partnership with Welsh Government is providing interest-free loans to bring private rented properties up to standard. The landlord loans can also be used to bring Empty Properties back into use.
Loans are available to assist owners to carry out repairs or improvements to their rented properties and to bring empty properties back into occupancy. The loan is available for owners who wish to sell or rent out the property. Loans can be used for work on residential properties or commercial buildings, which can include splitting a property into flats.
Applicants can apply for a loan up to 拢35,000 per unit, with a maximum of 拢250,000 per applicant. Repayment terms can be monthly, quarterly or yearly staged payments or full repayment at the end of the loan term or on transfer/sale of the property if earlier.
Where the loan approved is a 鈥淟oan to Sell鈥 the loan will be repayable immediately and no later than the date stipulated in the Loan Facility Agreement (maximum of 2 years).
Where the loan approved is a 鈥淟oan to Let鈥, the loan will be repayable no later than the date stipulated in the Loan Facility Agreement (maximum of 5 years), unless there is an earlier disposal of the property or the units within the property are divided and all sold on the same day.
For 鈥淟oans to let鈥 longer periods of between 5 and 10 years could be negotiated subject to agreement that, on completion of the works, the property will be rented at Local Housing Allowance levels with local authority nomination rights for the negotiated period.
The Local Authority does provide loans for owner occupiers and more information on these loans can be obtained on the contact details below.
