Mutual exchange scheme
What is the mutual exchange scheme?
Want to move to a different size property or to another area? The mutual exchange scheme allows tenants to swap their home for another tenant's home.
It is open to council and housing association tenants. All landlords must agree before an exchange can go ahead.
What do I need to do?
