Looking to Move

If you want to move house, there are a number of other options available, whether you want to continue to rent or would like to get into home ownership.

Transfer to Another OTHA Property

When a property becomes available, we either advertise the property through Inverclyde Common Housing Register or ask the local authority to nominate applicants.

Inverclyde Common Housing Register is a choice based letting scheme which allows users to filter homes by area, or their specific needs.

Mutual Exchanges

You may also want to consider a mutual exchange - this is sometimes a quicker option than a transfer or applying to another landlord. A mutual exchange is where you swap homes with another tenant who has a tenancy with either OTHA, another housing association, or local authority.

Move to Another Social Landlord

We can also help you find other social landlords in the areas you are interested in and can help with application forms if required.  You should also be able to get information on applying for social housing (and also about private letting) on the Inverclyde Council website.

Discuss Your Options
