Applying for your new home in Edinburgh...

Scotland’s Capital is vibrant and historic city and a perfect place to enjoy life to the full. To apply for a house here simply fill out an Edindex application form which you can download at https://www.viewpoint.org.uk/housing-support/how-to-apply. Alternatively, printed forms are available from Viewpoint Head Office or the City of Edinburgh Council. Once you have registered you will be sent your Edindex reference number. Our empty properties are advertised online every week at Key to Choice and Edindex applicants can bid for up to three properties each week via the website.

Please note we no longer accepts paper bids. You can bid directly on their website at https://edindexhousing.co.uk or by contacting EdIndex at edindex@edinburgh.gov.uk or by calling 0131 529 5080.

Online bidding opens every Friday at 3:30pm and closes the following Friday at 3:00pm. The bids will be ordered so that those in medical need are given the greatest priority, followed by those who are homeless, living in overcrowded accommodation or who are under-occupying properties. After that bidders are listed in order of who has lived in their property the longest. If you are successful, you will be invited to view the empty property. But don’t worry if you are unsuccessful - you can keep bidding until you are.
