ARE you signed up to Dorset Council’s ‘Open Doors’ Home Ownership Register – it may help you find your dream home.

It is for anyone seeking a home in West Dorset and Weymouth & Portland – whether that’s open market, affordable, shared-ownership or rental.

By signing up you’ll receive a newsletter about all the latest developments in the property market locally – including new schemes with planning consent or properties released for sale by housebuilders as well as government developments or shared ownership initiatives.

It is mainly for people who want to buy, but the register also wants to hear from those who want to rent.

The register doesn’t give people priority but it increases awareness of newly available homes in the area. It also gives the council insights into the type of homes people want, which it will be able to pass onto developers.
