Housing Services
We provide 327 homes in an area that covers central Scotland; the east coast of Scotland from the Scottish Borders to Moray and on the Western Isles. Our housing stock includes flats, bungalows, detached, semi-detached and terraced houses, rooms in shared properties, houses of multiple occupancy and a Care Home. Trying to find a home that is right for you can be difficult.
Our housing teams are here to help, the Homes to let page tells you about where Ark properties are located and how to apply for a home with us. Ark tenants will find more information about managing your tenancy in the sections about your rent account, homes to let and tenancy support. We want you to be happy in your home and that includes contacting us when you have questions or something to report.
