Allocation process

Homes will be allocated as follows:

  • TCH will notify the Council when shortlisting is complete and provide evidence of the shortlisting process for verification purposes
  • TCH will invite the applicant at the top of the shortlist for interview and to view the home
  • Applicants will need to provide any information requested, and confirm they meet TCH’s criteria as outlined in their Lettings Policy.

TCH will allocate the homes in line with this local lettings plan and TMBC’s Housing Allocation Scheme.

Applicants will be offered a starter tenancy, Assured (non-shorthold) periodic tenancy or in exceptional circumstances an Assured shorthold fixed term tenancy in line with Town and Country Housing’s Tenancy Policy. Applicants who are transferring from a Registered Provider or Local Authority will be offered an agreement with the same security of tenure (those with an Assured or Secure tenancy will be given an Assured (non-shorthold) Tenancy).
