Mutual Exchanges

Mutual Exchanges

This is an arrangement whereby two or more tenants agree to “swap” houses on a permanent basis.  As a Linthouse Housing Association tenant you could look to exchange with someone whose house is owned by: -
  • A Local Council
  • Another Housing Association
  • Linthouse Housing Association
Approval is dependant upon the properties being suitably sized (no overcrowding or underoccupation ), all rent accounts kept up to date (no arrear), and all tenancies having been conducted in a satisfactory manner.

YOU MUST NOT EXCHANGE UNTIL ALL TENANTS HAVE RECEIVED PERMISSION FROM THEIR OWN LANDLORD.

You are not allowed to exchange houses without our written permission.
