Why are Wheatley Homes South customers being asked to re-submit housing applications on their online account?
Homes4D&G will be launching a new housing information, advice and letting policy this year and we need to make sure our customers details are up to date. Our new system for storing tenant details will allow customers to update their application, see what homes we have available and tell us the homes they’re interested in.
It’s important that Wheatley Homes South customers who have applied for housing via Homes4D&G sign up for a My Wheatley Homes South account and not a MyHomes4D&G account, as this could hold up your application.

We’re improving the way we let our homes and how we support people to make the right choices about housing.
The changes will be designed to be fair to people in most need of social housing, including families in need. It’s also aimed at helping disabled people, older people and homeless people.

The new Homes4D&G website will be launched by Spring 2023.

But no matter what people’s circumstances, everyone will get great information and advice to help them get the right home for them.
