Council housing

The council owns over 5,000 properties that are rented to tenants. We provide services to tenants including housing repairs and providing a local neighbourhood manager.

In this section of the website you can apply to join the housing register or to move between council houses, pay your rent online, plus other services.

We are introducing a new choice-best lettings system and also administer the council tenants' right to buy scheme.

Also see the housing assistance section for information on sheltered housing, emergency accommodation and other ways we support the housing needs of the district.
