Whenever a suitable property becomes ready to let it is advertised on the CBL website on a weekly basis. The number of properties will vary each week depending on what properties are available. The bidding opens every Wednesday and closes at midnight the following Sunday. On occasions bidding may be extended for example over Christmas/New Year. We will notify applicants of any bidding or CBL-related changes on the Home Connections website.
During the bidding period applicants will be able to 'bid' for a home and their position for a property will depend on their priority (the number of points they have) and not when the bid is placed. If two applicants bid for the same property and have the same number of points, the property will be offered to the household who has been on the list the longest or has the highest mobility category.
