All social accommodation is managed by Housing Associations, known as Registered Providers.
Devon Home Choice is the choice-based letting system for councils in Devon. Rather than homes being allocated by the council, choice-based letting allows tenants and prospective tenants to bid for the available properties they are interested in.

Please consider all other housing options, such as low cost home ownership or privately renting particularly if you need to find a home quickly.
