Other homes
PrintYou can apply for many of our homes on different websites and through local authorities.
In some areas this is via a waiting list that you need to register for. The other option is through a local choice based lettings partnership which lets you apply for the homes you’re interested in rather than going on a waiting list. Where possible, we advertise our homes through these lettings partnerships where you can see properties from lots of landlords all in one place.
In some areas, a number of properties are also given to people referred by the local authority. This is called a local authority nomination.
How do I apply for a home?
Search for the area that you want to live in below and follow the instructions for the relevant scheme in that area. The process does involve filling in some forms online so please be ready for that.
Riverside advertises many of its properties on the West Lancashire Home Finder. This offers a variety of homes from Registered Providers of Social Housing and Accredited Private Landlords. They aim to give you more choice in deciding where you want to live. Properties that are available for rent will be advertised each week.
If you want to apply to rent a home from the Council using HomeFinder, you need to be on the housing register. If you are on the housing register you will automatically be registered for HomeFinder. You can get started straight away. If you are not on the housing register, you first need to apply to join by completing an application form. If you need some help completing your application please read the How to complete your application guide. Find out how to apply and more and more about who can use the HomeFinder service. You must tell them which properties you are interested in. This process is known as bidding.Enter your postcode below to find your neighbourhood
