Octavia does not have a waiting list which is open to anyone to join. Octavia works with the local councils in the areas where we own homes. This is to ensure that the majority of our homes are used to meet local housing needs.

When we have a property to let, then we either ask the local council to nominate a new tenant to us from the people who have registered with them as needing housing, or we will use the property to house someone who is already one of our tenants but who needs to move, for example, due to overcrowding.

The majority of Housing Associations work in this way so if you are interested in being rehoused by a Housing Association you should contact your local council first to join their housing register. On the form you are given to fill in tick the box to accept being rehoused by a Housing Association.
