Lifted from Hounslow Council website also in Hounslow Matters.

"In Hounslow, as many as 10 properties a week become available, and the council does everything in its power to make sure those properties are back in use within a three week time frame.  Most of this time is usually taken up with repairs and decoration to the property as well as identifying and signing up the new tenants.
Cllr Lily Bath, Deputy Leader of Hounslow Council and Cabinet Member for Housing, said she was determined to make this a priority; she said:
“Here in Hounslow, our housing team is already making great strides in reducing the number of both private and council empty homes in the borough as well as making improvements to them.  According to the latest National Empty Homes statistics, our number of private empty homes has gone down year on year and now stands at a respectable 191 homes out of a total of over 100,000, one of the smallest number in the London boroughs. However, I am determined to help reduce this number even further and make sure homes which have fallen into poor state, are renovated quickly and re-let for those residents who need them”.
How does that fit with your experience Vanessa?
