Cost Rental reviews Cost Rental review and permitted rent calculation
A guided CREL review process

Move from review eligibility to an applied charge with fewer manual steps.

Rent reviews for Cost Rental Equity Loan (CREL) properties depend on the correct dates, published HICP values and a regulated calculation. Affinity brings those elements into one repeatable workflow and keeps the review connected to the tenancy.

Affinity generates the formal review notice and can apply the resulting charge automatically. Your team currently remains responsible for managing the effective date and the gale-day payment date.
