HomeHunt for landlords

In times of austerity cost efficiency has moved increasingly up the agenda for social landlords yet balancing delivering good, informed housing choice with value for money can be a real challenge. Time and again landlords use inefficient or costly practices to allocate their housing products which all too often lead to increased void times, staff costs and high refusal rates and inevitably unhappy customers.

HomeHunt delivers the core features you would expect from a traditional Housing Register or Choice Based Lettings system and much more - all for a low annual subscription. And with no IT set up costs, no hosting or annual support charges and no software upgrade costs - HomeHunt really can deliver meaningful savings. You'll also find that you can make more effective use of your staff by advertising and letting ALL your tenure types in one place.

Unlike the private property sector, the social housing sector doesn't have a national website where Registered Providers can advertise any homes they have available for rent. There's also never been a more important time to have direct access to a pool of applicants to allocate your housing stock to.
