Welcome to Finding a Home

a choice based lettings service from Tamworth Borough Council


Due to operational and logistical pressures the number of properties available to bid on has temporarily declined. However, we are working hard with our Contractor Partners to ensure that we get an increase in properties available to bid on as soon as possible and are monitoring this on a weekly basis. If you have been made an offer of a property, please be advised that we will contact you directly once the address has been returned to us and arrange a viewing. Due to the demand on services, you may be under offer for a longer period than expected. Please be advised that the situation is being kept under review and you will be contacted directly when the team has an update. The Council apologises for any inconvenience caused. If you are homeless, or at risk of becoming homeless please fill in our online homelessness form and contact our team. Email: housingsolutions@tamworth.gov.uk, call 01827 709709.
