From 5^th June 2006, Castlehill Housing Association and Tenants First Housing Co-operative have introduced a new way of letting our properties. We are using a Choice Based Lettings system called homehunt® North East Scotland (homehunt® NES). 

If you wish to apply for a property with either Castlehill Housing Association or Tenants First Housing Co-operative you will need register with homehunt® NES. To register please visit the website at www.homehunt.info/register.asp and select "North East Scotland" from the providers list and input your own details.

To view full details of available properties please visit www.homehunt.info and enter search preferences. Alternatively you can view summary details on our current advert which you can download by clicking here (Adobe^® file). Before noting an interest in a property you may visit the area to see if you are interested in living there. However, please be aware that advertised properties are currently occupied and you should not directly approach the property or person living in the property at any time.

To find out how a property you applied for was allocated please download our quarterly newsletter by clicking here (Adobe^® file).

PLEASE NOTE: When bidding for a homehunt NES property, we will ONLY contact you if you have successfully been allocated the property you bid for. Therefore, if you do not hear from us within 48 hours of the closing date for the property you bid for, you will not have been successful on that occasion. We would encourage you to continue bidding for properties that you are eligible for when properties are next advertised.

If you are unsure what properties you are eligible for please telephone our office on 01224 628101 or email us at homehuntnes@castlehillha.co.uk, or write to us at homehunt ^® NES, 4 Carden Place, Aberdeen, AB10 1UT. It is also advisable to register with other landlords to increase your chances of being housed.

We also have a Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) page where you may find some useful information on applying for housing.
