What are choice-based lettings?
If you are looking for council housing in Caithness, you can apply through choice-based lettings.
This system allows you to view available properties and bid for the ones you are interested in. You will not be bidding with money - a bid simply means you are interested in that property.
This service is only available in Caithness.
How it works
Each week, available council and housing association properties in Caithness are advertised online.
You can:
- view the properties
- check if you are eligible
- place a bid on any properties that match your needs
New properties are added frequently, so check the listings often as many are only available for a short time.
What you need to do
To take part you must:
- Register with the Highland Housing Register
- Check if you are eligible
- Start bidding for properties
