The Single East Ayrshire Common Housing Register (SEARCH) application is going online.

Online SEARCH is an exciting new platform developed by Housing Services in partnership with software company, MRI.

Applicants create an account then can apply for housing, manage their application, view their list position and contact Housing Services directly through a personalised portal.

The system will speed up the housing application and allocation process, which will be fully digital from completing the application form to the applicant receiving their keys.

The online housing application system has been tested and developed in consultation with the East Ayrshire Federation of Tenants and Residents and SEARCH partners.

If you are an existing applicant and would like more info email HousingAdmin RegisterTeam@east-ayrshire.gov.uk.

If you don’t have internet access or email you can call the team on 01563 554400.
