Transfers

Please note: if you are a home owner, a resident in an almshouse, or a tenant on a six-month assured shorthold tenancy who has paid a deposit, this section may not apply to you.

We know that circumstances change, and that at some point you may wish to move to a different property that is more suited to your changing needs. 

Talking to our Lettings team can provide you with guidance about your options for moving. We try to encourage our tenants to re-register on a choice based letting scheme where possible, as it may be much quicker than getting an internal transfer. In some circumstances, it may be appropriate for NCHA to offer you an internal transfer. This is where a tenant moves from one NCHA property to another.

Alternatively, you may wish to consider a mutual exchange. NCHA pays for all our tenants to be part of the HomeSwapper scheme.
