Updated 30 October 2023

Applies to England, Scotland and Wales

Offers of accommodation from persons with 5 or fewer properties

Please note that this form is for Afghan schemes only. You can find out how to offer support for people fleeing Ukraine by visiting Homes for Ukraine.

Thank you for your interest in offering housing support to Afghans in the UK.

We will ask you questions about yourself and your property to help us decide if your offer is suitable for this scheme.

All properties must meet the essential criteria set by the Department for Levelling Up, Housing and Communities (DLUHC) to ensure they are suitable for Afghan families. Any offers that do not meet these criteria by the time the property is available cannot be considered.

Properties must:

• be self-contained with no shared facilities
• not be a hotel or student hall of residence
• be available for at least 12 months
• meet the standard safety regulations and landlord responsibilities
• be affordable to tenants, by being as close to the Local Housing Allowance (LHA) rates as possible

You will receive an email to confirm we have received your housing offer.

Your property details will be shared with potential tenants and they will be able to contact you through the local council or its preferred service provider. We will not share your contact details directly with potential tenants without your permission.

If you have any technical issues or queries about the status of your property offer, please contact HousingPortal@levellingup.gov.uk.
