    It's not about any loan. It's about who will pay it. When government can pay rents, government could pay a cheap purchase, as well. Which is cheaper rather than to pay rents for several years.


    So you want to purchase a piece of land and a shipping container to live in - What makes you think that the government will give you help towards it just because it will be cheaper than you renting?

    No, I am willing to pay some money for such help. But the problem is how to write it into contracts so that it can sound like a tenancy agreement.

    Trying to make a loan agreement "sound like a tenancy agreement" in order to claim HB would be fraud.

    You can’t and it won’t.

    Given that you seem to just want to ignore everyone telling you that you can’t do what you want to here, what was the point in posting?

    And what about two contracts?:

    1) A standard tenancy agreement (which I will show them when I will be asking for Housing benefit)

    2) A contract between me and the owner (who will buy a land and container). This contract I will not show when I will be asking for Housing benefit. In this contract will be written this:


    A contract between the owner and the tenant (me):

    "...The tenant will become the owner of the land and the shipping container AUTOMATICALLY after the tenant pays to the owner the total amount £10,000.00 with a form monthly payment any amount which will be considered also as a rent payment.."

    Is this way legally correct (clean)?
    You can't claim housing benefit because it no longer exists.


    As has been advised several times you won't be able to claim for help with the rent for this through UC or any other way.

    Any contract comes down to intent and not the wording, which is why this will be fraud. Clear intent is to use the benefit system for financial gain through capital acquisition and not through need.

    I'm out and perhaps the Mods will block this one now.
    Unlike some here, I am not omniscient. If I am wrong correct me. I won't take offence.
