Frequently Asked Questions

How does a council house swap work in Guildford? +
A council house swap (mutual exchange) lets you swap your social housing property with another social housing tenant. Both parties apply to their respective landlords, who have 42 days to approve or refuse. TownSwap helps Guildford residents find willing swap partners for free — the formal exchange goes through your landlord.
Is TownSwap free? +
Yes, TownSwap is completely free for tenants. No listing fees, no subscription, no hidden charges. We believe everyone deserves access to housing. The local business directory has a small fee for advertisers, but all swap listings are and always will be free.
What is mutual exchange? +
Mutual exchange is the legal process where two (or more) social housing tenants swap their homes. You keep your tenancy terms, and both landlords must approve the swap. It's governed by the Localism Act 2011 and is one of the few legal ways social housing tenants can choose to move.
How long does a council house swap in Guildford take? +
Most exchanges in Guildford complete within 6–12 weeks once both tenants agree to swap. Your landlord has 42 days to respond. Finding a willing match is often the longest part — TownSwap helps you find matches faster by making listings visible to more people.
