Pre-Tenancy interviews
If you are the successful bidder for a property
After bidding closes, we will contact the first eligible applicant on the list. This is usually by telephone to invite you to attend a pre-tenancy interview or arrange a transfer visit, if you are a council tenant already.
If we cannot contact, you by telephone we will try other methods such as email or letter asking you to respond. If you fail to respond we will class, it as your refusal of the property.
It is important you tell us if your contact details change. If we cannot contact you, we cannot offer you the property. We will also class this as your refusal the potential offer.
