Jersey's housing qualifications system is unique and can be confusing for those new to the island. Understanding the different categories is essential before beginning your property search.
The system is designed to manage the island's limited housing stock and ensure residents have access to appropriate accommodation. Properties are generally divided into 'qualified' and 'non-qualified' categories.
Qualified housing is available to those who have lived in Jersey for a certain period or meet specific criteria. Non-qualified housing is open to all residents regardless of their length of residency.
If you're unsure about your housing status or which properties you're eligible to purchase or rent, our team at ND Estates can guide you through the process and help you find suitable options.
