What is Housing Allocations Software?
Housing Allocations Software simplifies how providers match applicants to available homes. It automates key steps in the process—such as eligibility checks, priority banding, and offer management—so you can deliver fairer, faster, and more transparent lettings.
Benefits_
Replacing spreadsheets or rigid legacy tools with an intelligent allocation system allows you to:
- Ensure consistent, policy-led decision making
- Reduce manual admin and avoid allocation errors
- Improve customer satisfaction with clearer communication
- Capture audit trails for compliance and reporting
Use Cases_
Housing teams use allocations software to:
- Manage waiting lists and housing registers
- Prioritise offers based on housing need and policy
- Track lettings outcomes and void turnaround times
- Coordinate across multiple local authorities or partners
Key Components_
