Direct Matches and Adapted Homes
Direct Match
There will be certain circumstances when a property will not be advertised in the normal way. This is known as direct match.
Direct matches are a very small proportion of total lets and are made up of the following:
- Purpose built or extensively adapted properties.
- Housing Management Lets. Where properties are required for specific management purposes the qualifying person will normally receive one reasonable offer of accommodation.
Adapted Properties
If you are assessed by an Occupational Therapist as needing a property with adaptations and be informed of suitable property types and adaptations that meet your needs.
You will be able to bid on adapted properties that are advertised but ensure you read the full details page of the advert before you bid to make sure the adaptations will be suitable for you.
If you do bid and the adaptations aren’t suitable then you will not be offered the property.
