Empty Homes

 

House

If you are interested in selling, renting and repairing your empty property Tameside Council are glad to be of assistance. Transforming your empty property will not only turn a financial burden into a cash generator, but it will also be of great benefit to the community.

In Tameside there is a shortage of good quality and well-managed affordable housing for local families. The Council’s empty home programme works with trusted local partners with a long-track record of working in the borough.

Our aim is to find long-term sustainable solutions. We work with a range of local property professionals to ensure that you will be well-formed about the sales and rental value of your home.  

As an owner it could mean the difference of several thousand pounds, steady rental income, and huge property uplift through repairs work.

If you are an empty home owner contact emptyhomes@tameside.gov.uk today.  

 

Sale

If you are looking to put your empty property on the open market we have strong partnerships which can help guide you through the process. The housing market across Tameside is gaining strength with demand regularly outstripping supply on a whole range of properties

Our partners have a suite of products tailored to the needs of empty home owners from free market appraisals to mortgage advice.
