Move home

There are several ways you can move home.

Move to an empty home

You may be able to move to an empty home if you can no longer live in your current home. Demand for housing is high, and we can’t guarantee you’ll get a home.

Apply to move to an empty home

Swap your home

You may be able to swap your home with another social housing tenant (known as ‘mutual exchange’). You can do this using a website called HomeSwapper.

Contact your local council

You can apply for council housing through your local council. You’ll usually have to join a waiting list.
