HomeOption gives more choice about where you want to live. In the past the Council or Housing Association would make an offer of accommodation when your turn had been reached in an area of your choice. Now you will have the chance to express an interest in a property which is suitable for your needs when it becomes available.

Attention all Chelmsford Council and CHP applicants!!

We are changing to a weekly bidding cycle as of Friday 4 May 2012. This means you will be able to bid on properties every week instead of every fortnight. So, you will be able to place bids every Friday from 4 May 2012. Everything else will stay the same. You can place your bids until 1pm every Wednesday.
