Housing Allocations Service

Description

If you are looking for housing in the borough the Housing Allocation Service could help you

The Council transferred its housing stock to London & Quandrant Bexley Homes and Orbit South Housing Association in 1998.

Finding households for most of the empty housing association homes in Bexley is done by Bexley Allocation Service

The service helps between 700 - 1000 households each year in obtaining a housing association home in Bexley. It is run in partnership with London & Quandrant Bexley Homes and Orbit South Housing Association who together with Gallions Housing Association have most housing association homes in the area.

The service is also able to put people forward for homes owned by other housing associations.

There are many more households than there are homes available so there is a system in place for deciding who gets helped first.

Choice Based Lettings

Choice Based Lettings is a different way of letting council and housing association homes and we want to bring it to Bexley in early 2010. Homes are advertised on the internet or in a newspaper so it's more like choosing a home through an estate agent.

Homes Let in the Borough

There are 12,500 housing association homes in Bexley, of which nearly 10,000 are owned by London & Quadrant Bexley Homes, Orbit South Housing Association and Gallions Housing Associations.
