To help public sector workers afford accomodation close to where they work in Norfolk and Suffolk, the government led Key Worker Living Programme is organised through Orbit First Step housing trust (with the exception of St Edmondsbury and Forest Heath which are covered by Keyhomes East who also cover Bedfordshire and Cambridgeshire).
Orbit has been appointed as Zone Agent for the Key Worker Living scheme in Norfolk and Suffolk to help key workers find affordable housing as public sector employers were finding it difficult to recruit and retain staff due to the high cost of housing in these areas.
The schemes available specifically for key workers living in Norfolk and Suffolk are:
The equity loans can be up to 25% of a property's purchase price and the loan is only repaid when the property is sold, at 25% of its value at that time. The amount of the loan depends on a number of factors including household income, assets and financial commitments.;
