To apply for properties you must be aged 16 or over and be registered on our housing list. You may not be eligible to go on the list if -

  • you are a person from abroad (even if you are a British Citizen).  For more information please see advice from the homeless charity Shelter (link opens in a new window)
  • you have been found guilty of unacceptable behaviour and we believe that this makes you unsuitable to be a council tenant

Request on application form using our online form

You can also request an application form from any customer service centre or information point, or telephone us on 01482 300 300.

A PDF version of the form is available to download here -



Please call into any of our customer service centres or information points and a member of staff will be happy to go through the application form with you.

When you register you will also need to supply information to confirm your identity, current address, National Insurance Number and other circumstances.

When your application has been registered you will receive a letter telling you your reference number and your priority on the housing list. You can then start making expressions of interest in our advertised properties.

More information on housing priority allocation

If you are not eligible to go onto our housing list, we will notify you and give you information on how to appeal if you do not agree with our decision.

Every two weeks we will advertise all our available council properties here, in the Hull Daily Mail's 'Find a property' supplement (published on Thursdays), on our Looking Local site (available through your Sky box and internet enabled mobile phone), and at customer service centres, information points and in some local libraries

  • Stadium Library
  • Greenwood Library
  • Central Library
  • Bransholme Library
  • Western Library

Search the online list of currently available properties and bid for properties online

Please contact us if you are unable to access property information in any of these ways and we can arrange to post information to you.
