Swapping with a tenant of Prospect Community Housing?
Under the Housing (Scotland) Act 2001, a Scottish secure tenant needs the landlord's written consent to exchange.

Each landlord follows its own nation's rules. Get the application in early, keep your rent account clear, and ask for the decision in writing. Prospect Community Housing's website has their application form and rules.
