Property adverts and how to bid for housing
New choice-based lettings system
Our new choice-based lettings system, My Home Central, is now live. If you haven't created an account, you'll need to register before you can place any bids.
When you register, you'll:
- need your email address
- your application number (this is your Bedfordshire Homefinder user ID/application number)
- set up a password
- need your tenancy number, if you're already our tenant
- be sent a code by email to verify your account
How to bid for housing
If you qualify for the Housing Register, you will be able to express a preference (bid) for vacant social rented properties advertised through My Home Central, our choice-based lettings (CBL) System.
To log in, you'll need your email address and the password you used when you registered your account.
Available properties are advertised weekly from Thursday to Tuesday. Properties you can bid for will be shown on the ‘bid on a property’ page within your My Home Central account. To place a bid, follow the how to bid guidance (PDF).

Please be aware that there are delays in being able to re-let our advertised properties, due to a national shortage of building materials.
