How do you decide who is successful for a Property?

When you make a bid on a property, a shortlist is created of everyone who is interested in that home.

This list is based on the Band (see more about bands in What band am I in and why?) and if more than one person have the same band then the date you registered is taken into account.

The person with the highest band and/or longest registration date and who meets the criteria for the property is the person who is likely to be offered the property. However the landlord will carry out checks and references.
