How to apply for housing

You can get an application form from any of our offices or by completing our on-line form.

Cymdeithas Tai Eryri has a waiting list for accommodation and we use a points system to prioritise applications. In Anglesey, the Association works in partnership with the County Council to provide a common housing register and waiting list.

Anyone can make an application for housing but there are exceptions.

We cannot process your application straight away if:

• You are a tenant with another Housing Association or Council – you should contact your present landlord.
• You are homeless – you should contact the Council, as we cannot provide emergency accommodation. However, we can offer advice if you are not sure what to do.
• You own your present home – we may consider your application if you are experiencing financial difficulties e.g. mortgage arrears or if you are on a low income. You will be required to provide written evidence e.g. letters from the bank or building society with your application.
• You suffer from any medical problems – you will be required to provide medical evidence with your application e.g. a letter from your doctor.
• Your house is in a poor state of repair – again we will ask you to provide written evidence such as e.g. a report by the Council’s Environmental Department.

Each application is assessed in accordance with our points system and individual needs.

We will ask the Council for nominations from their waiting list as well as considering applicants from our own waiting list. The property will be let to the applicant with the most points. You can obtain a copy of our Lettings Policy by contacting any of our offices. It explains how we award points.

Points to remember when completing the application form:

• You should ensure that you provide information of all the previous addresses you have lived in for the past 10 years.
• You should include written medical evidence if you are either:
  1. Pregnant or,
  2. Suffering from any other medical condition

  1. You have financial difficulties or,
  2. Your current home is in poor condition/state of repair

Moving from the Property

If you intend to move out of the property, you must give us at least 4 weeks written notice. Each and every tenancy must begin and end on a Monday. When the tenant leaves the property, every other member of the household must also leave the property. You must leave the property in a clean and tidy condition. If there is any damage caused to the building/property you could be liable to pay the cost of repair.
