Housing Needs Surveys
The housing needs survey is an essential part of planning for future housing requirements. It is an independently produced document, which gives an unbiased report on the type, size and tenure of dwellings that are needed in the community.
We have worked with over 150 rural communities to carry out Housing Needs Surveys, resulting in 254 homes (affordable-housing-schemes). Most of our work is undertaken in Stratford District and Warwick District but we also conduct surveys in other rural areas. You can contact our Housing Enabling Officers to discuss undertaking a survey in your local area, perhaps as part of your Neighbourhood Development Plan or Parish Plan.
