Moving to a smaller home

L&Q introduced an Under Occupation scheme to provide help and assistance to residents who would like to move to smaller properties.

You may want to consider moving to a smaller home if:

• you are finding your home becoming too costly to run and difficult to manage,
• the number of people in the household has reduced (e.g. children have grown up and left home), or
• you may want to move to a different location to be nearer family or work

If you move to a home with fewer bedrooms, we will give you:

• Priority on the transfer list
• £300 for accepting a home with one less bedroom
• A further £400 for each additional bedroom you give up
• Removal costs of up to £500
• Help with redecoration, redirecting post and reconnecting utilities and appliances such as cookers and washing machines.

If you would like further information see our Moving to a smaller home leaflet or contact L&Q Direct.
