Report an empty home

Empty properties are a risk for several reasons. They can attract antisocial behaviour or crime, become overgrown or become a target for fly-tipping. They can also fall into poor condition and become a safety risk.

If your property is connected to an empty home, this could increase risk for damp or deterioration. If you know of an empty property, please report it to your council area using the details below.
