About Devon Home Choice
Devon Home Choice is a way of looking for council and housing association homes.
Under Devon Home Choice you can:
• Choose which homes interest you
• Move within Devon
Register
The easiest way to join the Devon Home Choice register is to visit www.devonhomechoice.com and
complete the online application form. To do this please click on ‘Register with Devon Home Choice’
from the home page. Alternatively you can complete this application form and return it, with any
additional information requested on the form, to your local housing team.
How applications are assessed
All applications to join the Devon Home Choice register will be assessed and placed in 1 of 5 priority
bands. This will be based on our assessment of your housing need, and whether or not you have a
local connection to Devon.
The 5 priority bands are:
• Band A: Emergency Housing Need
• Band B: High Housing Need
• Band C: Medium Housing Need
• Band D: Low Housing Need
• Band E: No Housing Need
Please note that Exeter, Teignbridge and Torbay councils do not register households assessed
to have no housing need (Band E).
For more information please see the Devon Home Choice policy, available at: www.devonhomechoice.com
How homes are advertised
Council and housing association homes available to let in Devon are advertised each week:
• On www.devonhomechoice.com
• On the Devon Home Choice App for Android and Apple phones
• In a newsletter that is available in a variety of locations
Homes are advertised from 12:00am on Wednesday to 11:59pm the following Monday. No homes are
advertised on a Tuesday.
The adverts tell you the landlord, location, size, rent and other features of the home.
The advert also tells you if there are any special requirements that the applicant must meet. For
example any minimum age if it is older persons accommodation, or whether a local connection to a
particular area in Devon is required.
Where homes have been adapted, adverts will make clear that priority will be given to applicants who
have a mobility need or disability.
Bidding for homes
Once your application has been accepted onto the Devon Home Choice register you can tell us which
homes you would like to be considered for. This is called bidding.
Bidding does not mean that you will part with any money.
You can bid for up to 3 homes each week:
• On www.devonhomechoice.com
• On the Devon Home Choice App for Android and Apple phones
• In person at Council ofces
In order to bid for homes you will need:
• Your User ID (Application number)
• Your password.
You can only bid for homes that match your household needs. For example, if you only need 2
bedrooms you will not usually be able to bid for 3 or 4 bedroom homes.
• Under Devon Home Choice each of the following are assessed as requiring a
separate bedroom:
• People living together as a couple
• Other adults, aged 16 years old or over
• 2 children or adolescents under 16 years old of the same gender
• 2 children who are both under 10 years old regardless of sex
Any exceptions to these rules will be clearly set out in the advert for a home.
For more information on how Devon Home Choice works please see www.devonhomechoice.com or
