Housing association investment
Housing Association Property Investment
Housing associations need suitable homes in the right places. Private owners can help meet that need through clearly structured rental arrangements.
Why housing associations work with private owners
Housing associations and registered providers are responsible for a large share of the UK's specialist housing. Building new homes takes time, so leasing completed properties from private owners is one way they secure accommodation.
How arrangements are structured
Some agreements are made directly with a housing association; others involve an intermediary or a local authority. The structure is specific to each property and is confirmed in its documentation — we never assume a direct lease where one is not in place.
Assessing the counterparty
The strength of your income depends on the organisation paying the rent. Public information on registered providers, including regulatory judgements, is published by the Regulator of Social Housing and should form part of your due diligence.
