Local context
Housing demand is high across England. Official statistics show around 1.34 million households were on local authority housing registers at 31 March 2025, and 134,210 households were in temporary accommodation at 31 December 2025. Birmingham City Council says it manages around 54,000 social housing properties, including around 5,000 supported housing properties, and Birmingham Choice reports it receives over 500 housing applications a week with assessment taking around eight weeks. Signpost is not a council housing register. It gives people and providers another way to search for and list available accommodation.
Good to know
Rooms are usually in shared houses or HMOs. Check whether bills are included and whether a service charge applies.
Look at the deposit, minimum term and availability date on each listing.
Use the filters for Universal Credit, Housing Benefit, referral or support needs if they matter to you.
