Community right to bid

Community right to bid

Community groups have the right to nominate property that is believed to further the social interests or social wellbeing of the local community. 

If successful, groups can bid to buy the property on the open market if the property owner decides to sell.

To nominate a property you must:

  • show evidence of your eligibility
  • inform us of the address of the property, details of the owner (if known), the extent of the site and why you feel it's an asset of community value

Fill in the expression of interest or intention to bid form.
