Priority Bands

Northumberland Homefinder uses a banding scheme to prioritise applications.  Priority is given to people who are in the most housing need and not on a first-come, first-served basis.

They will assess your application and place it into one of 5 bands, These are;

Band P – applicants who are in urgent housing need.

Band 1 – applicants who are in high housing need.

Band 2 – applicants who are in medium housing need.

Band 2R – applicants who would otherwise be in Bands P,1 or 2 but whose priority has been reduced.

Band 3 –  applicants who are currently adequately housed.
