How to apply for Housing

You may apply by telephoning, visiting or writing to our Erdington or Walsall offices. More

Mercian provides homes for people who are inadequately housed or homeless and for those who have particular housing needs.

To assess housing need and treat all applicants fairly we use a points system when allocating homes, taking into account the applicant's existing housing conditions, in particular:

  • overcrowding
  • lack of basic amenities
  • medical problems
  • social, family or employment needs.
