Council bidding

[Millimam]

Hi I’m on council bidding for a house it’s been 4 years. Now my position for some house listings is 3/4 and for some 200-300. I wondered if anyone else been in same position and know why this is? TIA

Not bidding but used to work for a few years in council housing team. Your positon will be affected by how many people apply for each property and their priority. The ones where you're 200/300 are more popular, way more people bid on them and had higher priority than you. The ones where you're coming higher are less popular

Hi I have been on the housing list about 3 and half years on band 2 (medium priority) and when I phoned last week they said I was top of my band does anyone know what this means thank you .

Local connection areas probably

Thank you for the reply I do have a local connection to the area and for these houses you need to have a local connection to be considerd and its a new build site so there's about 10 houses so I'm assuming if I'm at the top of my band (band 2) then I might be in with a chance of being offerd the property .or even gwt shortlisted ? Thank you

Can you please help me I have been bidding weekly consecutively and have been coming position number 1 for the new builds and they aren't contacting me for those kinds of properties. However I've bidded twice for a old rundown flat and have been offered same day. I am so confused im pretty sure im eligible as I have two kids

Hey,

I am currently in band B and have been bidding for a while. Last week I placed a bid on 3 three bedroom properties and am in position number 3 for all of them. I just wanted to know what happens in this situation or if anyone has been in a similar situation? Thank you!
