About the App

The Great British Property Scandal's Empty Home Spotter app is the best way to report an empty home while on the move. There are around 1 million empty properties in the UK but their locations are not always known to the local council.

So that's where you can help. Identify the location of an empty property on the map, take a photo if you can, and upload the details - the app sends the whole lot directly to the relevant person at the relevant local authority.

Help us create a register of empty homes to enable them to be brought back into use by downloading our free iPhone Empty Homes Spotter app at the Apple App Store (search for 'empty homes') and get reporting! You can also report an empty online.
