    thanks for your replies. I'm looking for accommodation for someone in receipt of ESA and PIP. So would need to be somewhere that accepted housing benefit. Would need to be somewhere that was furnished too.

    Hi again @Zeta, have you tried searching for properties on the internet? Many online property searches allow you to filter results so you can choose to see only properties that are suitable for DSS/housing benefit. I also found this DSS Move search which may be useful.
