Council housing availability in the Highlands

Check housing demand and supply

Some areas in the Highlands have more available housing than others. In some places, demand is very high and supply is low. This can affect:

  • how long you wait for an offer
  • whether you get an offer at all

You can change your area choices at any time.

Use the demand and supply tool

Use the demand and supply tool to help you understand your chances of getting a home in different areas.

You can:

  • choose the town or area you want to live in
  • select the type of property you need

The tool will show you:

  • how many people have chosen that type of property in that area
  • how many of those properties are available
  • how many were re-let in the last financial year

This can help you make informed choices and improve your chances of getting an offer.
