Empty Properties

There are around 1,500 empty homes in the District and nearly all of these are privately owned. We aim to bring empty, privately owned, properties back to use by working together with owners, managing agents and developers, and voluntary organisations.

Please tell us if you are aware of a long term empty property within Epping Forest District. We will also give advice if you have an empty property which may be suitable for letting.

Our Finders Fee Scheme could help if you are a landlord or agent with an empty property available for rent. Click here to download our leaflet on the scheme.
