Refusing an Offer of a Home

You may refuse as many homes as you like, this will not affect your place on the Housing Register.  However, you must remeber that just because your bid was unsuccessful once it does not mean you will automatically be successful the next time you bid.

If you refuse an offer of a home we will ask you for your reasons.  We do this to help us understand what the best home for you would be.  We also use the information to monitor how well this service is working.

If you have been accepted as homeless by the Council and you refuse a reasonable offer of a home, we may consider that we have discharged our duty under the homelessness legislation.
