Mutual exchange

Would you like lower energy bills, a new community, to move closer to family and friends, or just a fresh start?

Then a mutual exchange could be for you! 

A mutual exchange is where two or more tenants who are in social housing accommodation can swap tenancies. 

You can swap with:

  • Another tenant from Trent & Dove
  • Another local authority tenant
  • Another housing association tenant.

Customers must find a swap partner themselves. Both parties must agree that they would like to put in an application to exchange tenancies. You must not move until we say. 

Please be aware that we will continue to carry out wear and tear repairs, however, we will not be responsible for the condition of the home you move into. When you exchange, anything that is classed as a 'tenant’s liability', you will become responsible for in your new home. 

Find out more from our mutual exchange leaflet . To apply, download and complete our Mutual Exchange Form. 

Send the completed form electronically to enquiries@trentanddove.org or print and post to:

Trent & Dove Housing Ltd
Trinity Square
Horninglow Street
Burton on Trent
