Welcome to South Oxfordshire Choice Based Lettings

Housing Options

There is a high demand for Council and Housing Association properties in Oxfordshire, therefore, most of our applicants will wait some considerable time before they can bid successfully for an affordable rented home through Oxfordshire Homechoice. You should consider other housing solutions, which may be faster and meet your needs in the short or long term. This section provides you with information about other housing options both in Oxfordshire and around the UK.

Housing Services can offer you a range of free advice. For contact details click How to Contact Us.

When you first contact us you will be able to get immediate advice and if appropriate an appointment can be arranged to discuss your housing options. We will give you a checklist of information and documents that you will need to bring along to your housing options interview.

Threatened with being homeless?

If you think you might become homeless let us know as soon as possible. We can negotiate on your behalf with a relative, landlord, or mortgage lender to delay or prevent you becoming homeless. Most homelessness is preventable if early action is taken. However, if it is not possible to help you stay where you are we would look at the housing options available to you. Don't delay, contact us straight away.
