The council reached the milestone through its Open Market Purchase Scheme, with the 1000th property secured in North Motherwell.
This programme aims to boost housing supply, prevent homelessness and bring properties back into use.
Councillor Michael McPake, convener of housing, said: “Reaching our 1000th home is a fantastic achievement and reflects the sustained effort and commitment of everyone involved in delivering the programme.
“This scheme continues to make a real difference for our communities.
“It allows us to increase the supply of affordable homes in areas where they are needed most, supports local regeneration and, importantly, helps people remain in their homes and avoid housing uncertainty.
“We know there is a lot of demand for good quality affordable housing across North Lanarkshire and the Open Market Purchase Scheme gives us another effective way to respond to that need.
“Every property purchased represents an opportunity for an individual or family and contributes to creating stronger, more sustainable communities.”
The scheme forms part of the council’s wider new supply programme and offers an alternative route to accessing good quality council housing.
It also helps return long-term empty homes to active use and offers security to tenants at risk of losing their homes due to private landlords selling properties.
Over recent years, the council has expanded the scheme, enabling more residents to remain in their homes as council tenants.
The scheme supports housing improvements and upgrades across the North Lanarkshire area.
Fiona Dickson, project development officer, said: “One of the most pleasing aspects has been hearing from tenants and residents about the difference it is making.
“We’ve received very positive feedback from people across our towns who have seen empty homes brought back into use, improvements made to properties and more families able to settle into secure homes within established communities.”
