One of the measures to assist the housing market announced earlier this month by the Department of Communities and Local Government (CLG) was the establishment of a ‘National clearing house’ via the Housing Corporation to facilitate the transfer of bulk packages of new housing stock over 500 units from developers to Registered Social Landlords (RSL’s).
The new system is in addition to the standard bid assessment processes which currently applies for smaller volumes of stock, details of which are also included in a briefing note HBF has produced on the initiative (see below).
We have also attached the excel form which you will need to use in order to apply for this initiative. (see below)
