How the rules work in Gorseinon
Affordable homes in Gorseinon are mainly provided by councils and registered social landlords, often with Welsh Government Social Housing Grant, and can include social rent, intermediate rent and shared ownership. Private renters hold standard occupation contracts, and landlords must keep homes fit for human habitation. Buying a new home means paying Land Transaction Tax where it applies. Land to Homes plans homes for sale and rent in Wales and invites you to register interest.
In Wales, the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016 means tenants are contract-holders with written occupation contracts: standard contracts for most private lets and secure contracts for most council and housing association homes. Private landlords must register with Rent Smart Wales, and those who manage their own lets must also be licensed. Homes must be fit for human habitation.

Questions about New Homes to Rent in Gorseinon
Does Land to Homes have any homes to rent?
No, not yet. Land to Homes is a new venture and has no homes available to rent. We do not take rental applications, holding deposits or fees at this stage. You can register interest with the area, type of home and timing you need, and we will contact you if we bring forward rental homes that match.
What is build to rent?
Build to rent means homes designed and built specifically for renting, usually owned by one landlord and professionally managed as a whole development. Schemes often include on-site management and shared spaces. Land to Homes talks to institutional partners about build to rent, but we have no build to rent homes available at present.
Are new-build rented homes more energy efficient?
Generally, yes. New homes must meet current building regulations or building standards on insulation, airtightness and heating, which are stricter than the rules many older homes were built to. That usually means a better Energy Performance Certificate rating, although running costs still depend on the home, the heating system and how it is used.
How are tenancies different in Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland?
In Wales, tenants are contract-holders under occupation contracts set by the Renting Homes (Wales) Act 2016. Most private tenancies in Scotland are open-ended private residential tenancies. In Northern Ireland, private tenancies are governed by the Private Tenancies Order, as amended by the Private Tenancies Act 2022. Each nation has its own rules on deposits, notice and landlord registration.

Yes. Registering for Gorseinon is free and does not commit you to anything. There are no homes available yet; if we bring homes forward in or near Gorseinon, we will contact you.
