Transferring to another home
All permanent MHT London residents can apply to transfer from one of our properties to another.
You can be considered for transfer if your home is no longer suitable for your needs and you meet the necessary criteria for re-housing, and if you have paid all your rent(unless there are special circumstances).
Due to limited availability residents can be on the waiting list for a long time, particularly when requesting to live in very specific areas or if a larger home is required. To make the transfer process as fair as possible applications are assessed to see which residents have the greatest need according to their current living situation.
Examples of housing problems which may give priority to an application are:-
- overcrowding
- serious medical reasons; a supporting letter from your doctor or another medical person should say what the reasons are should be sent in with your application
- serious special problems
- where your home needs a lot of repairs or work which cannot be done while you are living in it
- under occupation - we can sometimes offer incentives to residents who wish to transfer to a smaller home.
If you wish to apply for a transfer you should contact Customer Services to request a transfer request form.
