Recent Lettings Information

Please note that there is a severe shortage of social housing in the borough, with less than 100 properties becoming available each year. Most of these vacancies are for 1 bedroom and sheltered flats and we would generally only expect one 4-bedroom vacancy to arise every 1-2 years, less than ten 3-bedroom and approx. twenty 2-bedroom vacancies a year and most 2-bedroom properties will be flats not houses.

Please find below information regarding the number and types of all social housing vacancies that have been allocated over the last 5 years.
