Empty properties

Welcome to the Empty Property section of West of England Private Housing.

• Do you own an empty property in good repair but don't know whether to sell or rent?
• Are you a property developer looking for opportunities to turn empty properties into profit?
• Have you recently inherited a property that's standing empty but are unsure of the next steps to filling it?
• Are you aware of a propety left standing empty and want something done about it?

If so, this website can help you. The four West of England local authorities work together to tackle the problem of empty homes across the region. We encourage, enable and assist owners to bring their empty properties back into use for residential accommodation.

Whether you own an empty property, wish to buy an empty property or if you want to report an empty property you will find useful information, advice and contacts to help you here.

To help fill empty homes we've launched these online facilities:

• Empty Property Catalogue - A new initiative to help owners to sell their empty properties. Add my Empty Property now.
