As a result of the national lockdown in March we are now carrying out water tests and treatment in all our empty homes.
This has caused some delay in being able to sign people up for their new homes, and we are working with specialist contractors to ensure this work is carried out as quickly as possible.
As soon as your property has been tested, a member of the Empty Homes Team will be in contact to arrange your viewing and sign up appointment.
