Paying rent and service charges

The amount of rent you pay is worked out according to strict guidelines, using a formula set by the Government. You may also have to pay a charge for services provided by Paradigm such as cleaning communal areas and looking after your estate.

If you live in the Chiltern district and don’t have a water meter you may also have water charges included in your total weekly rent.
