Mutual Exchange
What is Mutual Exchange?
A Mutual Exchange takes place when two tenants agree to exchange properties with each other. Tenants do not need to have the same landlord but the exchange requires the approval of both landlords involved. Those wishing to exchange must be tenants of a Registered Social Housing Landlord i.e. a Local Authority, Housing Association, Housing co-operative, or fully mutual co-operatives.
Applying for a Mutual Exchange
When you have found another tenant you wish to exchange with, both tenants should complete a Mutual Exchange form. The Association will then consider the mutual exchange and will provide written consent or refusal on the Mutual Exchange Application. Further information on Mutual Exchanges please call the office on 0141 944 3860.
