Local housing allowance rates

The maximum Housing Benefit for a private tenancy (not a registered social landlord) is determined by the Valuation Office Agency.

In order to find out the appropriate rate for a property please visit Local Housing Allowance website. You will need to enter the post code of the property and the number of bedrooms you are entitled to.

The local housing allowance broad rental market area for Shropshire Council overlaps the normal county boundaries. Please also note that the maximum LHA rates are limited to a maximum of four bedrooms.
