  • Mutual Exchange  
    If you currently live in social housing (either owned by a council or a housing association) you can exchange your property with someone else who also lives in social housing. In this way you may be able to move much quicker than by waiting on your local authority or housing association’s housing register.

    ELLC MUTUAL EXCHANGE (MX) SERVICE IS ENDING: PLEASE BE AWARE THAT WE ARE NO LONGER ACCEPTING MUTUAL EXCHANGE APPLICATIONS OR ADVERTISING MX ADVERTS AND YOU MUST NOW BEGIN AN APPLICATION THROUGH HOMESWAPPER -  https://www.homeswapper.co.uk/

     
  • HomeSwapper  - HomeSwapper is the UK's largest social housing tenant community for home swaps. It enables you to move locally or anywhere in the UK. Swapping is especially useful for residents without high priority banding, offering a quicker alternative to waiting for a transfer.
     
  • Housing and Employment Destination (HED) - This tool guides you through various options to improve your housing situation by asking a series of questions.​
