Housing Register & Allocations Team Leader
The housing allocations policy sets out how priority is awarded and is the key tool we use to decide what priority applies to a household.
To be eligible to join the housing register an applicant has to:
the Secretary of State. If the applicant does not meet this they are not eligible and can not join the housing register.
In order to meet the qualification criteria to join the housing register an applicant has to:
If the applicant does not meet this they do not qualify and can not join the housing register unless they meet the exemption criteria.
Client’s have a housing need when their current accommodation is not suitable or does not meet their housing need. Some of the reasons are :
To join the housing register, the main applicant must be over the age of 18. The applicant can include:
essential need for a carer e.g. overnight support.
Once an applicant has joined the Housing Register and been given a banding, they will then need to go onto the Choice Based Lettings system Locata weekly to view the available properties. Applicants are able to place three bids each week
Once bidding closes, a shortlist is generated sorting applicants first by banding and then the length of time they have been in that band. When the property is ready to view, an officer will contact applicants to invite them to have a look at it. A Viewing Officer will attend the property and will be able to answer applicant's questions. They will note who is interested in accepting the property.
Whilst the shortlisting and viewings process is taking place, officers will also be carrying out verification checks to confirm all of the details of the application and that the applicant has not displayed any un-tenant like behaviour.
Once the applicant has accepted the property and the verification checks have come back
At the sign up, we request a week's rent in advance. We will go through the tenancy terms and conditions and the information an applicant will need to sustain the tenancy. Once this has been done we will then give the keys and the tenancy will start.
