I just want to ask all of you who want/ need that extra bedroom, have you actually asked HH or your council or h/a if you are eligible for the extra room because some landlords have a min occupancy and a max occupancy for each home, and just to put a dampner on things a livingroom and dining room are now classed as bedrooms to some landlords councils and H/A, i know it sounds daft but before you jump into an exchange ask your landlord, i know where i live you cant have a 3 bed if there is only 1 child or same sex children no matter what size the home is. If you have a look on the council exchange lists on the web most tell you what to expect from an exchange. i hope you all get what you need i know what its like to live in a cramped house and we all could use extra room but just seek advise before accepting an exchange that your landlord might not agree to
