The Mutual Exchange allows two or more contract holders to swap their contracts and their homes. This is a popular way for contract holders to move quickly and easily.

Mutual Exchange is a popular way to move home quickly and easily

If you have found another social housing contract holder that you would like to exchange with, you need to complete and return a Mutual Exchange application form below. Once we’ve received the application your community housing officer will assess if the move can be approved.

The team has no more than 14 days to apply for further information from the relevant parties. After this information has been provided by those involved, there is then 1 month to complete the relevant property checks and either approve or refuse the application request.

Before you apply, here are some checks that need to be completed.
