Advertising and searching for exchanges
Complete an online form (below) to advertise on both the council's and East Lothian Housing Association's websites.
Your ad should appear within ten days, if it doesn't please contact your housing office. You must include some contact details, otherwise no-one will be able to contact you. This could be a work number/email address, or for friends or family, if you prefer. Your name will not be published online.
Printed copies of adverts are available at our area offices and it is possible to advertise only in these offices - but that will limit your responses.

Searching in East Lothian
Search for a suitable property in East Lothian or nearby
Searching for properties elsewhere
Some local Housing Associations do not help tenants to advertise here. For local properties not in our advertising scheme, or ones elsewhere in the UK, links to other websites are available. We do not guarantee the quality of these sites - the links are provided only to help you. Some services may make a charge. If you know which area you want to move to, the local council's website may be useful, as well.
What to do when you've found an exchange partner
Our guide to swapping your council house will tell you all you need to know about the process, including important DO's and DONT's.
This information is for council tenants - Housing Association tenants should contact their landlord.
