Private Sector Housing Services
Our Private Sector Housing Team deals with all housing which is not owned by the Council. This includes privately rented accommodation, housing association properties and owner occupied properties (including those being bought through a mortgage).
Approximately 80% of North East Derbyshire’s residents live in the private sector and of this only about 5% live in privately rented accommodation. So we have an important role to play in encouraging owners to maintain their homes and eliminate hazards which might affect the people that live there.
