Me and my 3 kids are lodging with my brother and his family. I need to move out in under 2 weeks cos we are overcrowded. I'm getting nowhere with the local councils so am looking to privatley rent.
Where can i find a list of landlords that accept dss. I'm in west yorkshire but am willing to relocate.

Your council should hold a list of LLs that are prepared to rent to benefit claimants. (They may not be able to give you a house but they should have this list, although it may not be very long).
LLs need to minimise their exposure to risk. A guarantor would help and/or a few (maybe 6) months rent up front.Inside this body lays one of a skinny woman
but I can usually shut her up with chocolate!
When I thank a post in a thread I've not posted in,
it means that I agree with that post and have nothing further to add.

May be worth contacting your local CaB who may have a list and/or use this advice finder...

You are likely to get a list of letting agents who MIGHT have property with Landlords will to consider tenants on HB/LHA.
Alternatively scrub up nice, go in smiling with chin up and see as many letting agents as possible and give as good a story (utterley honest obviouysly...) as you can..
Someone might just be kind, but expect loads of disappointment.
Hope it works out, good luck!!0
