Cllr Judy Hamilton said: "This is an important step forward in providing a better service for people looking for Council or Housing Association housing in Fife - and making it more accessible is going to give people the opportunity to try and find a home that is right for them.
"All of our teams have been working on this system for a few weeks and I'm delighted that we're able to launch this new way of working, which helps tenants to know all of their Housing options across all the Fife Housing Register partners."
Andrew Saunders, Chief Executive Officer of Ore Valley Housing Association and Chair of the FHR Executive, said: "The completion of this web-site, designed to make it much easier for people to find out more about their housing options in Fife, is a fantastic example of what can be achieved when partners work together to achieve a common goal.
"We hope that the new website will become the place to go for information and support for everyone with an interest in housing in Fife."
