Transfer to a different council property
If the council property you're living in isn't suitable you can apply to move to a different property.
What transferring is
If you're a council or housing association tenant living in Brighton & Hove, you can apply to move to another council or housing association property. This is called transferring.
Who can apply for a transfer
You can apply for a transfer if:
- your current home is too big or too small for your family
- you or someone living with you has a medical condition made worse by your current housing
- you need Seniors Housing
- you need to move to give or receive care
If you want to move to a smaller property because you have one or more bedrooms you no longer need, you should apply for our Transfer Incentive Scheme.
