Moving options for tenants

Moving options for tenants

Whether you're thinking about moving out, or have already started the process, it's helpful to know what your options are.

Mutual exchanges

A mutual exchange is when you swap your home with another tenant. You can swap with existing B3Living tenants or those with other housing associations. 

It's a great option for people who want to live in a particular area.

Only tenants on assured and fixed-term tenancies can do a mutual exchange. 

Where do I start?

HomeSwapper allows you to view other homes and speak to tenants who are looking to swap. It's free to use! Sign up here.

Housing register 

Joining the housing register involves signing up to the council's waiting list for housing. 

As it's a waiting list, depending on your circumstances, you might not be moved straight away, 

Where do I start?

If you're interested in becoming a B3Living tenant, or moving out of one of our properties, you'll need to make an application with the local authority to join the housing register.

Buying a home

You might be able to buy the home you're living in.

This would be under a Right To Acquire/Right To Buy scheme. However, not all homes are available to purchase. Give us a call on 01992 453700 option 5 to see if you can. 

B3Living also offer shared ownership homes. These help people buy a home with a smaller deposit. Find out more here: Home | B3@Home (b3athome.co.uk)
