Navendu Mishra said the situation in Stockport has left people in ‘desperate’ situations trying to find an affordable home.
In June, a council report found that an ‘unprecedented’ number of people are facing homelessness in the borough.
And there are around 6,000 people on the local housing register according to Stockport Homes, the firm which manages the town hall’s housing stock.
Mr Mishra said his office recently supported a Stockport resident facing homelessness who was offered accommodation 100 miles away in Birmingham.
The Labour MP accused the Lib Dems, who run Stockport council, of contributing to the problem by previously voting to leave a region-wide housing plan, then known as the Greater Manchester spatial framework (GMSF).
The scheme has since evolved into Places for Everyone and has been adopted by every town hall in the region apart from Stockport, but it has faced criticism over the release of green belt land.
Places for Everyone aims to build a total of 165,000 homes around Greater Manchester.
Mr Mishra said: “Housing continues to be the single biggest issue that people contact me about.
