Palm has 27 homes – 10 family houses with gardens, 5 two-bedroom flats and 10 one-bedroom flats with a proportion of wheelchair user accommodation and some flats designed specifically for active older people.

Palm's properties will not be for sale at any time to its members nor to any outside organisation or individual. Half of Palm's vacancies are let to people whose names are put forward by Southwark and Lambeth Councils from their housing waiting lists. The other half are let to people who have applied to the Coin Street Co-op's Joint Housing Register directly (telephone 020 7021 1600, email housing@coinstreet.org ). In both cases the Co-op makes the final decision about who will be made a member and offered a flat.
