Please note when completing this Application Form that our houses are allocated according to need and points and will be awarded according to your present circumstances. We already deal with large numbers of enquiries and cannot guarantee you a house. When we have assessed your application, we will contact you to advise you of how many points you have been awarded. If you would like a copy of our Allocations and Transfers Policies and Procedures, they are available, free of charge, from the Association s offices. In the meantime, if you have any enquiries on any aspect of your application, please contact the appropriate office.
