The interest is always much greater than the number of homes available, so you need to be flexible and look at other housing options.
You can also find out your chances of getting a property through Homechoice.
How it works
- You can register for a home with us and see available properties by visiting the Homechoice website (opens in a new window)
- The size and type of home you can apply for will depend on the ages and relationships of the people within your household. Our Allocations Policy explains the process of deciding what size and type of home you are eligible to bid for.
- You choose up to 3 properties each week that are suitable for you. We call this ‘bidding’, and you can do this through the Homechoice website (opens in a new window)
- We start advertising properties 00:01 Friday to 23:59 Tuesday.
- If someone refuses a property, then we offer it to the applicant with the next highest level of rehousing points.
Important information
- There are always more people applying for properties than we have homes becoming available

- Bidding means choosing up to 3 properties each week you are interested in
