Contact us

empty.homes@redbridge.gov.uk.

If you own or know of an empty property in Redbridge then please report Picture of an empty house it to us. We may also be able to help in bringing it back to use.

If you do know of any property please contact us at empty.homes@redbridge.gov.uk.

What happens next?

The Empty Properties Officer will investigate the reasons why the property is empty and, where possible, contact the owner to agree a course of action for returning it to use.

In some circumstances where the owner refuses to act responsibly in relation to bringing the property into use, the council will consider enforcement action.

Where an empty property owner is keen to sell their property, there may be a local Registered Provider (formerly known as housing associations) willing to purchase if the price can be agreed. If you are interested in this option please indicate by completing the Empty Property Form below.

Empty Homes Agency

The Empty Homes Agency is an independent campaigning charity, which exists to highlight the waste of empty property in England and works with others to devise and promote sustainable solutions to bring empty property back into use.
