Swapping your home in Harrogate

If you are a tenant in affordable housing, including our homes, it may be possible for you to apply to swap your home with someone else in affordable housing. We call this process a mutual exchange.

You will need our permission to swap if you are one of our tenants.

How it works

All mutual exchanges are managed by our partner HomeSwapper. 

This service matches you with other tenants who are also interested in mutual exchanges. If you're one of our tenants, you can use HomeSwapper free of charge. If you are in private rented accommodation, you may have to pay.

Using the service is simple. All you need to do is:

  • visit the HomeSwapper website or download the free app to register
  • enter the details of your current home and the home you'd like to moved to
  • wait for our approval
  • see your possible swaps and contact any that you are interested in
