Some of the properties advertised on Newcastle Homes are subject to a local lettings policy. A local lettings policy is additional criteria which an applicant would need to meet to be considered for a property. For example, they must have a connection to a specific area, be a key worker or be a certain age. 

Local lettings policies can be applied to any of the properties advertised on Newcastle Homes. If a local lettings policy applies the criteria will be clearly stated on the property advert.

In most cases you will not be able to bid for properties that is subject to a local lettings policy. If you are able to bid and do not meet the criteria for the property, your bid will be skipped, and you will not be offered the property.
