Housing and homes

This section has information for owner occupiers, tenants, leaseholders, landlords, letting agents and people looking for a new home. We have information and advice on:

• issues such as homelessness, eviction, problems with housing conditions and anti social behaviour
• requirements for landlords to comply with their legal obligations and provide healthy and safe accommodation for their tenants
• responsibilities and rights of tenants
• home maintenance
• financial assistance for home improvements and adaptations for disabled people
• saving energy in the home; ways to keep warm and reduce bills
• help which may be available to support vulnerable people in their homes
• housing benefit and council tax
• empty homes
• HouseLet -landlord leasing scheme

Our council housing has now been transferred to Plymouth Community Homes (PCH); information for PCH tenants and leaseholders can be found on the Plymouth Community Homes website.
