FAQs
You need to complete a Housing Options Assessment with the Department of Communities. Two questions you will be asked when completing the form are:
- Do you identify as Aboriginal/First Nations? You must tick YES to this to be considered for our housing.
- Are you happy to have your information shared with Community Housing Organisations? You must tick YES to this.
This then means you can assessed for Community Housing which includes NMM, Foundation, Access Housing, Aboriginal Housing and broadens your opportunity for getting housed.
Once this is done, you are automatically registered with NMM. When we have a house available for the region / area you have been approved for and it has the appropriate number of bedrooms, Noongar Mia Mia will contact the Department of Communities and request a list of applicants.
For more information please see our Housing Search page.
Get in touch with us and we can look at your reason for being declined. We will take down your details and investigate for you.
If you work full time you are unfortunately not eligible for Community Housing, but we can potentially put you on a waitlist for Working Families. Give us a call and we can see what we can do for you.
Because we are a small community housing provider with only around 90 properties and a low turn-over of clients, we do not have a waitlist.
By contrast the Department of Communities has thousands of properties all over the State, so they have a high turn over of tenants for many reasons. We will always do our very best to support you if you are eligible for housing and get in touch with us.
