How can I be sure I wont be worse off by joining the scheme?
You should make sure you are aware of what your likely financial situation will be if you decide to change it in any way, for instance, move off Job Seekers Allowance and into a full time job. To start with it is likely that most people will only be slightly better off by moving off of benefits and into work, but the opportunities for career progression, and the many other benefits of such a move should be taken into consideration, and should enable you to make an informed decision about what you want. All the properties which Real Lettings offer will be able to be covered by Housing benefit/local housing allowance and will therefore be affordable if you are working. Real Lettings will be able to help you calculate how much local housing allowance you are entitled to if you begin working.
