The housing register

We cannot offer a council home to most people who apply. This situation is unlikely to improve. Last year we let only 1,022 properties, housing around 6% of the 15,000 households on the register.

Before you can apply to be on the Housing Register, answer these questions to make sure that you are eligible.

Have you already applied to Islington Council for housing?
