At the end of the bidding cycle, the property will be offered to the person with the highest priority. We will contact you if your bid is successful, you do not need to contact us.
If you are a current Aberdeen City Council tenant, we will contact you within 5 days to arrange access to your current home to complete a property review before an offer of accommodation is made.
If you are not a current tenant and have been selected for an offer, we will phone you within 2 working days. The phone call will come from a withheld number. During this call, we will ask you some more questions and arrange to meet you at the property so that you can view it.
At your viewing we will show you inside the property and any communal areas. You can ask any questions you have about the property or area at this appointment. After the viewing, you will have 48 hours to decide whether you are going to accept the offer of the property.
If you decide to accept the offer, you will be invited to sign the lease agreement. At this stage, you will be responsible for paying the rent for the property.
If you do not accept the property, it will be offered to the next person on the priority list. We will determine if the offer was suitable for you or not. If it is decided that the offer was suitable, your application may be deferred for one year and you will not be able to bid on any properties.
If your bid is unsuccessful, you will be able to bid in the next bidding cycle.
