You’ll notice that on most of
our property listings we say
that a local connection to
the area is needed.
This is because the homes for sale in these
areas have been built specifically to help
meet the needs of local people who can’t
afford to get on the housing ladder any other
way.
The local area connection criteria varies
between sites, but generally it’s based on:
eing a resident (or employed within)
B
the area for a number of years (usually
between 2-5)
F amily connections – for example,
parent, grandparent, child, grandchild
or adult sibling – who have lived in the
area for at least three years.
Applicants must have a local connection to
Lichfield District Council.
