How we Prioritise 

Spectrum Housing Group is working in partnership with Isle of Wight Council to provide quality homes and 

sustainable communities and had agreed with them a prioritisation plan. 

Priority will go to applicants who live or work on the Island however people from other areas can apply. 

Where demand is very high, further priority may be given to: 

1) Existing social tenants of a Local Authority or Housing Association tenants 

2) Families 

3) Keyworkers as defined by the Homes and Community Agency 

4) First time buyers 

The prioritisation does not determine which particular home you will be awarded. Whilst we would like to be able 

to give everyone their first choice, this is not always possible. In the event of competing choices we will allocate to 

the applicant who completed Spectrum Housing Group’s application form first. We may take medical needs into 

consideration when allocating particular homes, so please advise us in writing of any medical conditions that may 

affect your application. 

In ALL cases you must be registered with Homes in Hants, the local Homebuy Agent. However if you are not 

already registered, we can give you details on how to do this. 

The applicant must qualify for a mortgage from a qualifying lender. Spectrum Housing Group has a panel of IFA’s 

(Independent Financial Advisors) experienced in sourcing Shared Ownership mortgages. Please ask a member of 

the Homeownership Team for more information on this.

Electricity 

Photo Voltaic Panels 

Your Victoria Walk home has market leading photo voltaic panels, installed by 

a fully approved installer. 

Photo Voltaic Panels utilise light, not heat, to generate a DC current and are 

wired into your new homes normal electrical system. 

They help meet European Union targets on carbon reduction and help 

safeguard your home against rising energy costs, meaning you use less energy 

and save money. 

In April 2010, the government introduced a system called the Feed-In Tariffs 

(FITs). The FITs means payments are made to owners of solar panels from their 

electricity supplier. 

There are two components to the FIT: 

The Generation Tariff 

Paid per Kilowatt on the total of electricity generated. 

The Export Tariff 

Paid per Kilowatt on the amount of unused electricity exported back to the 

National Grid. 

Therefore, homeowners are paid to generate electricity whether they use it or 

not. 

Code for Sustainable 

Homes, Level 4 

Your Victoria Walk home achieves Level 4 in the Code for Sustainable 

Homes. This rating system sets standards for energy efficiency and 

sustainability to limit the environmental impact of housing. 

Some of the features that help your home achieve Code Level 4 are: 

• Lower levels of air permeability due to the outside of your homes 

improved performance 

• Improved insulation as a result of a larger wall cavity and improved 

underfloor performance 

• 75% low energy light fittings 

• More thermally efficient windows with insulated frames 

• Rainwater collected in water butts 

• Dedicated cycle storage for every home 

• Designed to ‘Lifetime Homes’ standards which enable the home to be 

modified to cope with the changing needs of the occupier
