Would you like more money in your pocket? Do you need help with the cost of moving home?

Passport to Housing is a free and confidential service offered by Curo to help people bidding for homes through Bath & North East Somerset's Homesearch and South Gloucestershire's Homechoice schemes to prepare for a successful Curo tenancy and plan for the expense of moving home.

Call us on 01225 366000 or email customeraccountshelp@curo-group.co.uk if you think Passport to Housing might work for you.

Credit checks

Passport to Housing will carry out a credit check before we consider offering you a tenancy. We need to check the following: 

• Your identity
• Your past borrowing record
• Your current commitments

This will help us support you to identify and manage any financial barriers to getting a tenancy at an early stage, to save you unnecessary delays as at the point of getting an offer from Curo.

You may consider that you have no debt, or that you're managing small debts well enough for them not to get in the way of affording a tenancy. Very often people have debts from the past that they've forgotten about, or current arrangements that need to be addressed to make them more affordable.

No debt situation is ever irreversible if you work together with Curo. We can tailor solutions to suit your needs, supporting you to get your finances back on track.
