Allocations and transfers

Specialist housing law solicitors

Are you fed up of waiting for an offer of permanent council accommodation? Perhaps you’re not sure whether your priority band is correct?   

Since the ‘Choice Based Letting Scheme’ was set up, most councils and housing associations are no longer responsible for allocating properties to would-be tenants. Instead the onus is on you to look for your own home by ‘bidding’ for properties.

This has the advantage of giving people the chance to choose the properties they want to be considered for. But it means it is important to get your priority band correct.

If you’re having trouble getting the housing you want, and are unsure whether your priority band is right, let us help. We can advise you on the options available, help arrange temporary accommodation if you’re currently homeless, and let you know whether the council has property complied with its allocation policy.
