Empty properties

Empty properties cause a variety of problems to those living near to them and are a waste of valuable housing.  The Council works with a variety of partners to ensure that as many empty homes as possible are brought back into use.

Find out more information from the charity that organise the National Empty Homes Week.

We can give owners advice on how to get their properties occupied and we will take action to reduce any nuisance that they maybe causing neighbours.

More information is available from the empty property draft consultation 2012 to 2015

To report an empty property, please contact the Private Sector Housing team on the details below.
