Council Housing
Transfers
Existing South Ayrshire Council tenants can apply for a transfer to another council
house at any time.
Those applicants who have rent arrears or are in breach of their tenancy agreement
will not be made an offer of housing unless they have come to a repayment or other
arrangement, which is satisfactory to the Head of Regeneration and Housing.
Applicants who have been responsible for anti-social behaviour, or have been
the subject of an unsatisfactory tenancy report from any landlord, may not be eligible
to receive any offers of housing.
How to Apply for a Transfer
Tenants wishing to apply for a transfer to another council tenancy can do so by
completing the Council's general
Application for Housing.
Copies of this application form can be obtained by contacting your local Area Housing Office in writing,
by phone, email, or by dropping in to the office.
How Transfer Applications are Prioritised
Allocations staff will carefully check the form, ensuring the applicant is eligible
to join the transfer list. Points are then awarded according to each aspect of housing
need e.g. overcrowding, sharing amenities.
