Select a Home Choice Based Letting Scheme

United Welsh Housing Association

01/10/2008

All properties that were available for letting were advertised on a fortnightly basis. Adverts were sent out to applicants on the Association's waiting list and to partner organisations.

The Association's application forms included questions to determine how applicants wished to receive property adverts - via the post or by e-mail.

Adverts included pictures, information on the properties available for letting, and the outcome of the most recent lettings under the Select a Home scheme, including number of bids, registration date of the successful bidder offered the property and their priority.

Adverts also included a summary of all the Association's stock holdings by area, the number of vacancies in the last year and the number registered for rehousing, to enable applicants to make informed decisions on where to bid for housing.
