Local Lettings Plans (LLPs) are agreed local plans for the allocation and letting of homes within an agreed community/location or across a type of property. These are agreed between the council and the housing associations.
The criteria required under the LLP will be identified on the property adverts and verified. Where a LLP is being operated adverts will be labelled to provide preference to some households, such as social housing tenants wishing to transfer or those requiring ground floor accommodation as a result of medical needs.
An offer can be withdrawn or refused if evidence comes to light which means the household does not meet the LLP criteria.
In most circumstances LLP's only apply to initial (first) lettings at a new build scheme.
