Rent Policy

TAHL establishes a rent for all houses. This is known as the TAHL Rent.

 

It is important for TAHL to know the maximum amount a household can pay in rent. This is calculated as -

 

30% of eligible household income + Commonwealth Rent Assistance.

 

The rent paid by a household is the LOWER of:

> The TAHL Rent [currently $195 per week]; or

> 30% of eligible household income + Commonwealth Rent Assistance.

 

TAHL uses the same sources of income as Housing Tasmania in assessing the maximum rent a household can pay.
