# SAMPLE RENT ARREARS PAYMENT PLAN

Date: 8 April 2029

Parties: Harbour Homes Limited and Thomas Bell

## 1. Parties and purpose

Harbour Homes Limited and Thomas Bell agree this plan for 3A King Street, Nottingham NG7 2DL. The rent account shows £2,700 arrears at 8 April 2029, after crediting Thomas's payment of £300 on 5 April.

## 2. Money and rights

Thomas will pay current rent of £900 on the second day of each month plus £225 toward arrears, beginning 2 May 2029. Payments will be made by standing order to Harbour's named account and allocated first as agreed in the ledger.

## 3. Duties and operation

Thomas has explained reduced hours and supplied an income-and-expenditure summary. Harbour considers £225 affordable on the information provided, but Thomas must notify it promptly if circumstances change and seek a review rather than miss a payment.

## 4. Consent and management

Harbour will provide a monthly statement, correct an identified accounting error and pause additional recovery action while instalments are kept. It does not waive interest, costs, possession rights or any statutory ground unless confirmed in writing.

## 5. Ending and remedies

A missed instalment gives five working days to remedy after written notice. If not remedied, Harbour may end this concession and pursue the lawful rent and possession procedure, but will not change locks or remove belongings without authority.

## 6. Legal reservations

Thomas may make an early payment, propose a different plan or obtain independent debt and housing advice. Personal data is used for account management, affordability review, enforcement and legal compliance.

## 7. Signatures

The parties sign on 8 April 2029. The plan is a payment arrangement, not a surrender, variation of the tenancy or admission that any statutory notice is valid; England and Wales law applies.
