Description
The service is procured by SBC on behalf of the Tees Valley HomeFinder Partners (Stockton-on-Tees, Middlesbrough and Redcar & Cleveland Councils, Beyond Housing and North Star) Whilst LA's are not legally required to maintain a housing register we are required to have an allocation scheme which identifies who qualifies for social housing / how applications are priorities and procedures for allocation properties. As a nonstock holding LA, we address local housing need via nominations to Registered Housing Provider housing stock. We maintain a housing register; we advertise and let these properties in accordance with the Tees Valley Common Allocation Policy.
