Right to Manage and Right to Transfer
The government website provides guidance to tenants on their Right to Manage and Right to Transfer
Local authority tenants have had a statutory Right to Manage since 1994. By forming a Tenant Management Organisation, and following Right to Manage Regulations, such tenants can take over responsibility for managing housing services, such as repairs, caretaking, and rent collection from their landlord.

Right to Manage statutory guidance: part 1 - GOV.UK (www.gov.uk)
Local authorities must co-operate with a group of its tenants who wish to explore the benefits of a change of landlord. Where a transfer proves to be the favoured and viable option the Regulations compel the local authority to commence the process of transferring ownership of those homes to a private registered provider of social housing.
