Empty Homes
 
At any one time there maybe over 700 vacant houses in the borough.
 
Many of these homes are soon re-occupied after they are sold or refurbished. However, some houses remain empty for longer periods and can cause problems for their owners or neighbours.
 
The Council has a strategy for dealing with empty homes which you may read by clicking on the link below.

The Council offers an Empty Homes Grant of upto £1000 to help bring houses back into occupation. Click here for application details.
 
The Council has powers to ensure all vacant properties are not open to unauthorised access. If you are troubled by an empty property in your neighbourhood please  email housing@crewe-nantwich.gov.uk
