There's a few things to think about before you apply, then you're ready for the next steps.

Am I eligible to rent?

Not everyone is eligible to rent social or affordable housing. So before you apply, spend a few moments checking you’re eligible to rent one of our homes. That way you won't be disappointed later.

How can I apply for a home?

We work with the local authority to provide homes through a choice-based lettings scheme which lets you choose which home you'd like to be considered for. You can find out how this works by reading our FAQs about how to rent a home.

Next steps

Find out what affordable homes are available in your area, register and bid for a home using Durham Key Options.

Can I rent one of your homes?

We know the ins and outs of social and affordable housing can get a little confusing, so let us explain who can apply.

Understanding the application process

When you want to rent a Home Group home, how you go about it depends where you live. Here we break down the different ways of applying and how applications are assessed.
