General housing

Although Colne manages over 3,000 properties across Essex, on average we only let two or three properties a week. The majority of our homes are let to people who are nominated by their local council or who bid via Choice Based Lettings for vacancies.

To bid for a property via Choice Based Lettings in Colchester, Braintree, Maldon, or Babergh districts, you must register on the Gateway to Homechoice website at www.gatewaytohomechoice.org.uk

For properties in Chelmsford, contact Home Option via email at  housingregister@chelmsford.gov.uk or phone 01245 606640

Our properties in the Tendring area are let through nominations only. You need to register with the local authority which can be done online at www.tendringdc.gov.uk or by phone on 01255 686466
