If you are a council tenant or a housing-association tenant, you may be able to swap your home with another tenant. Both secure and assured tenants have the right to exchange homes. This is called a mutual exchange.
An assured shorthold tenancy is for a fixed period of time. If you have a shorthold tenancy or live in purpose-built units, you do not have the right to a mutual exchange, although it may be allowed in some situations.
If you would like more information on mutual exchange please contact your landlord for more details.
