Housing Associations – From September 2005, the Council ceased nominating applicants directly to Housing Associations. This was when the Choice Based Lettings was introduced and Housing Associations gave a percentage of their properties to the Council to advertise on the Homesearch Bidding System.
Most Housing Associations at that time also closed their waiting lists which previously allowed applicants to apply directly to them.
Please read below if you are considering placing a bid on a housing association property. Please note you maybe subject to a financial assessment in accordance with the Housing associations policies
