Property Types By AreaWhat type of accommodation does Berneslai Homes manage in the areas I am looking for?

How many did we relet last year?

This information shows you the number and type of council owned properties Berneslai Homes manage and the number of each property type that has been relet in the last 12 months.

This information can help you decide:

  • If we have the type of property you want in your preferred areas;
  • If you need to consider widening your areas of choice;
  • If council housing is a realistic option for you;
  • If you need to consider other Housing Options including: Considering Housing Association Properties and the Private Rented Sector or Affordable Housing Options such as Shared Ownership.

You may need to be flexible and realistic about your chances of being rehoused. If you only consider certain areas where we have a low number of homes or a low turnover of vacancies you will be less likely to receive an offer, even if you are in a priority band.

There is very high demand for family and single person housing and larger age designated properties for older people.

If you widen your areas of choice and consider most property types the chances of being successful are likely to be increased
