One application covers all housing associations – You only need to register once to access and bid on homes advertised by multiple landlords across Shropshire.
Eligibility and banding
Shropshire HomePoint will assess your application based on the information and evidence you provide. This is done in line with Shropshire Council’s Allocation Policy.
What happens after you bid
If you’ve placed a bid on one of the properties we manage on behalf of Shropshire Council, we shortlist adverts weekly and will contact you directly if you’re being considered. Please make sure your contact details and application information are up to date so we can reach you easily.
If you’re not successful, you can check your HomePoint account to see the reason. Unfortunately, due to the high number of bids we receive, we’re unable to contact unsuccessful applicants individually.

You’ll be given a deadline to upload these documents so we can complete our allocation and affordability checks. If everything is in order, you’ll be invited to view the property. If you meet all requirements and pass the checks, you’ll be invited to sign up for the home.
