welcome to Basingstoke and Deane Homebid. This is the website which enables you to look for social housing in Basingstoke and Deane.

Please note that properties are advertised on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays. There are no adverts on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Important information for customers bidding for properties on Homebid

When you look at the list of properties available on Homebid each week you will now be seeing the terms AFFORDABLE RENT and FIXED TERM TENANCIES on some of the adverts.  Before you bid on a property you should be fully aware of what these terms mean.  AFFORDABLE RENT means that the rent might be up to 80% of the market rent – it will be more expensive than a social rent.  FIXED TERM TENANCIES are usually 5 year tenancies that are reviewed in the last year and either renewed or not – this means that they are not tenancies for life. 

If you require more information about the tenancy type rent level before making a bid, please contact the Housing Association advertising the property (click here for a list of Housing Associations).

Basingstoke and Deane Homebid is a 'choice based lettings scheme' which is run by Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council in partnership with our local Registered Social Landlords, or Housing Associations. To use the scheme you will have to have applied and been accepted onto the Housing Register (if you are already on the Housing Register you do not need to register again. If you are not sure please contact us).You must then tell us which properties you are interested in. This process is known as bidding.

Our website is packed with useful information to help you find you a suitable home. You can use this website to:

• Search for available properties
• Apply for a property
• View results of previous lettings

If you are an existing social housing tenant you can do a mutual exchange through the Homeswapper service.

At the moment Basingstoke and Deane Homebid is set up for social housing only. If you are looking for shared ownership please look at the Homes in Hants website. If you are interested in private rented properties you should contact a local lettings agent.
