Welcome to Homebid Magazine A new way to help you find a home in Southampton Homebid gives you more choice about where you want to live. In the past you waited on the Housing list until a property was selected by the council. Now you decide which properties you would like to be considered for. If you are currently waiting on the city council s Housing List, you should have already received a letter about Homebid and how you can obtain a User Guide at Gateway. The User Guide contains all of the information that you need to know in order to bid for your new home. Every fortnight SCC produces this free magazine, Homebid Magazine, distributed at various points across the city, which advertises almost all the available homes. You can look at the adverts and decide whether you want to be considered for any of the properties. You express your interest in properties by making a bid for them. A summary of how you can bid for properties can be found in the Homebid User Guide which you can obtain at Gateway. You will not be able to bid on properties in the Homebid Magazine until you have been accepted onto the Housing List. If you would like to find out more about Homebid, you could contact the Allocations Advice Line on 023 8083 2777, Gateway Southampton at One Guildhall Square. Further contact details can be found in the Homebid User Guide and also at www.southampton.gov.uk/homebid.
