Home-Options is the Choice Based Lettings scheme for the Derbyshire Dales. It is the way to apply for social housing in the district.

Social landlords advertise their empty properties on the Home Options website. You can then search for an empty property that meets your needs, in a place where you want to live.

How do I apply?

You can apply using the online application form. Once you have applied, please make a note of your application number. Please make sure you send us any document we have requested, otherwise we will not be able to process your application. You can find out more information about applying on the Home-Options website.

If you don't have access to the internet at home, you can use the computers at the town hall in Matlock or at your local library. If you cannot use a computer or struggle to fill in forms, please contact us for further advice.
