Apply For A Home

Gardeen Housing Association operates an open housing list. All applicants aged 16 years or over are entitled to apply and have their application assessed.

The Management Committeee carried out a review of the common housing register. We want to ensure that the service we provide ensures value for money and assists applicants.

The way applicants can apply for our homes has changed. The common housing register ended in May 2024. You can still apply for re-housing however your application form will be for Gardeen Housing Association only from June 2024.

The Management Committee reviews policies on a regular basis to ensure that we operate in accordance with the law and best practice. We have reviewed our Allocations Policy in May 2024. Only minor changes were proposed and approved. Please see our news feed for more information.

We operate an allocation policy based on groups and points.
