Moving in and moving out standards

When you move into a Council tenancy, we will make sure it meets our “Moving In Standard”. You will be expected to look after the home during your tenancy, keep it well decorated and report any repair issues. If you leave the property in the future you will need to make sure it meets the “Moving Out Standard”.

You can find a copy of both standards, and a checklist for moving out of your council property, at the bottom of the page.
