I've made a bid, what happens now?

Our homes stay on our website for at least 5 days after bidding opens or until the property is let. We’ll start to shortlist applicants during this time starting with the person who has applied first (unless a property is adapted or could be suitable for adaptations).

Everyone who’s applied will get an email from us, whether they’re invited to a viewing or they’ve not been successful. This may be a few weeks after a property is first advertised though due to the time taken to re-let a property.

Take a look at our frequently asked questions for more information about finding a home with us.
