Derby Homefinder

The size and type of property we normally offer you will depend on the size of your household. This table only gives a general guide.

Similar properties can be different in the size of bedrooms and the ideal number of people living in the property.  We will tell you which size of property we consider is most suitable for you when we accept your housing application.

A Derby Homefinder landlord could identify a property as being suitable to meet the needs of:

• an applicant who is a disabled person or who has mobility needs
• another member of the applicant's household who is a disabled person or who has mobility needs.

Where a property is identified as suitable in this way, only disabled people or
people with mobility needs will be able to apply for these properties.

If you have a permanent carer or a medical condition, we will normally offer you a property with an extra bedroom - as long as you have given us proof that shows you need an extra bedroom.

When we advertise a property, we will state:

• the minimum age for the main applicant or partner, and
• the minimum age if the main applicant or partner is getting Disability Living Allowance. 

It is always the Derby Homefinder landlord who decides on the allocation and who considers wider issues about the property's suitability.
