Housing

North Devon transferred its housing stock to North Devon Homes logo - Internet Explorer: This goes to an external websitein 2000. North Devon Homes now deal with all aspects relating to former council tenancies, new tenancies and garage rentals. All enquiries concerning home ownership, repairs, rent/rent arrears, home improvements and garden maintenance should be directed to North Devon Homes.

Last year we completed a major review of our Housing service, involving lots of consultation with local people.  As a result of this work we have published a far reaching housing strategy and action plan to address local needs.
Our Housing service has recently been inspected by external inspectors and found to be a fair service with prospects for improvement.

Affordable housing is one of the council’s priority areas. In order to help to address this need the council has worked in partnership with West Somerset Council and Exmoor National Park to create a Rural Housing Enabler project. This project is funded by a number of partner organisations (DEFRA, Housing Corporation, partner registered social landlords).
