pages in this sectionHomesearch... Homesearch is the new, simple way of letting a home, designed to give you more choice in where you want to live.
Buy a newly built home – or part-buy, part-rent... Occasionally you can buy a new home outright from us, at an affordable price. Or you can buy a percentage of a new home and rent the rest from us, with the option of gradually increasing your share.
Become a leaseholder... If you buy a flat or maisonette via the Preserved right to Buy or Right to Acquire scheme, or a percentage of one under the New Build Homebuy scheme, you will automatically become a leaseholder.
Supported Living... Visit these pages if you feel that you need some additional support while keeping your independence, sheltered accommodation – with benefits like 24-hour emergency contact and help with moving and repairs – is an option.
Garages... You can either rent a garage from us or rent a plot of land to build a garage.
Land, Allotments and Commercial Property... How to buy or rent land, or lease a shop. You can also read about what to do if you think someone is fencing off WDH property without permission – and find out how to rent an allotment plot.
