Social and affordable renting
Social and affordable rent housing is owned and managed by local councils or housing associations, such as Catalyst.
Applying to rent a Catalyst home
If you’re not one of our existing residents and want to rent a home from us, please contact your local council.
If you are a social housing resident, you can swap a home with one of our existing residents through:
- HomeSwapper: a national mutual exchange scheme for social housing tenants
- Locata Exchange: an online exchange scheme for social housing tenants and landlords.
- House Exchange: a leading not-for-profit mutual exchange service
for council and housing association tenants (Bedfordshire only).
