Choice Based Lettings

Choice Based Lettings

When council and housing association properties become available for rent we advertise them on our Home Connections website and in a weekly property magazine.

Priority housing applicants, including Westminster council tenants, can then bid for them using their housing priority and points. This is called Choice Based Lettings.

Bands and points  

We place all priority housing applicants in one of four bands: A, B, C with A being the highest priority, or band S if we register you for sheltered or supported accommodation. We also give you points to reflect your need for housing and in some cases how long you have been registered.

If several people bid for the same home, we offer it to the person in the highest band with most points.
