What is a mutual exchange?

A mutual exchange is where two or more Council or Housing Association tenants wish to swap their homes. This is an alternative for residents who don't have a high enough priority or banding to be able to access a home through the normal allocation process.

We operate a mutual exchange scheme through HomeSwapper, a UK-wide service allowing you to swap your home with other housing association tenants and council tenants. If you are a Rooftop tenant, you can use this service for free.

Download the registration form here - once you have registered your home with HomeSwapper they will search for a potential match for you and contact you when a possible home is found.

For more details about eligibility, download the leaflet 'swapping your home' which you can find on the right of this page.
