Eligibility for empty property assistance

Empty property assistance is available to help revive areas that have been blighted by empty properties that have fallen into disrepair or have the potential to do so.

Any landlord wishing to participate would need to become accredited under the council's Landlord Accreditation Scheme.

The council may determine to make home improvement assistance available in respect of empty properties where the following applies:

• The property has been empty for a period of more than twelve months
• The property is strategically important due to its location or potential use if it were to be brought back into use
• To do so would be in line with and positively contribute to the council's adopted empty property strategy

How much assistance is available?

Where the council decides that it would positively contribute to its strategic aims, objectives and priorities, then they will give consideration to asssistance to bring the property back into use.

For full details and terms and conditions, view the complete policy and look within the theme based assistance chapter.
