Once the bidding is closed residents are shortlisted the following Monday (or the next working day if it is a bank holiday) and usually the top six bidders are invited to view the property. Residents will not be contacted if they have not been shortlisted. Shortlisted residents will be contacted by telephone. This means it is very important we have the right contact number for applicants.
After viewing the property the bidder with the most points (highest priority) who wants the property will be offered the tenancy. If that household decides not to take the property it will be offered to the household in position two on the shortlist, then position three and so on. The property will be let to the household in the highest position that accepts the property.
