How to bid on a council housing property

If your bid is unsuccessful (you do not get an offer)

a property has been purpose built or significantly adapted for a person with a disability and you do not need that type of property
you have rent arrears or a debt relating to a current or former tenancy
you are under 18 and have no guarantor and no support being provided by Social Services
a local lettings policy is in operation and you do not meet the criteria
you intend on bringing pets that are not allowed in the property
do not meet the Registered Provider rules of that landlord for income, household size or any other reason
you need a level or type of support that the property or scheme cannot provide.

We may also withdraw an offer if:

we find that the property is not suitable for your needs or circumstances
we find that you are not entitled to the offer
you are currently a council tenant and the condition of your current property is not satisfactory
you have not responded to the offer
an error has been made in the advertising criteria
there has been a serious breach of tenancy subsequent to the offer, but before it has been accepted.
