Tenancy fraud

Here’s more information about what tenancy fraud is, and how to let us know about suspected fraud.

What is tenancy fraud?

Tenancy fraud (or social housing fraud) occurs when a South Yorkshire Housing Association home is occupied by someone who…

  • is not legally entitled to be there
  • has obtained use of the property fraudulently, and/or
  • leaves the property empty while living elsewhere.

Tenancy fraud deprives deserving people of access to affordable homes, and can also lead to anti-social behaviour.
