How to Find Affordable Housing in Kensington and Chelsea

In short: Affordable homes in Kensington and Chelsea include council and housing association homes at social or affordable rent, and shared ownership homes to buy. Social homes are allocated through the council's housing register, usually by bidding on advertised homes, with priority based on need. Kensington and Chelsea has some of the highest property prices in the UK and a limited supply of social homes, so most applicants wait a long time; intermediate rent and shared ownership homes are offered to some working households. If you're at risk of homelessness, contact the council's housing team straight away. Fraser Bond doesn't allocate social housing, but we welcome private rental applications from tenants receiving benefits.
