How to apply for housing

There is no longer any Council owned housing stock in Plymouth. All social housing stock is owned and managed by various registered housing providers.

There are over 20,000 social rented homes in Plymouth, ranging from specialist accommodation such as sheltered housing for older people or adapted homes for people with disabilities, to family homes.

All available homes are advertised as part of the Devon wide scheme on the Devon Home Choice website.

You can look at homes available for letting without registration. If, however, you want to bid for a property you do need to be registered.

To find out more about getting registered you can:

• Pick up an application form from the ground floor of Plymouth City Council’s Civic Centre.
• Apply on line at the Devon Home Choice website.
• Call us on 01752 305496 and ask for the Housing Options Team
