Further Information

In order to determine a household’s position for housing, Fareham Borough Council uses a banding system.  Once on the Housing Waiting List, Applicants can express an interest in weekly advertised properties through LetSelect (Fareham Borough Council’s Choice Based Lettings Scheme).

 

LetSelect is Fareham Borough Council’s chosen way of allocating social housing, whereby available properties are advertised for expressions of interest from applicants on the Housing Waiting List.

 

Fareham Borough Council owns approximately 2,400 homes for rent.  This number is continually decreasing as more homes are sold through the Government’s 'Right to Buy’ scheme.  Fareham Borough Council no longer builds new homes itself, however, the Council has nomination rights to some homes provided by registered social landlords (i.e. housing associations), new schemes are built throughout the borough.


If you are homeless or threatened with homelessness or require advice on your housing options please contact our Housing Options Team on telephone number 01329 236100 or email: csd@fareham.gov.uk.
