Supporting councils and referral organisations with compliant housing, responsive communication and long-term accommodation solutions for vulnerable residents.
Placing residents into quality private housing across Greater Manchester is a constant challenge for local authorities and referral partners. You might be struggling with a shortage of willing landlords or properties that fail to meet basic safety standards. You are in the right place. We work directly with councils to supply compliant homes quickly, keeping landlords committed and housing available when you need it.
Councils and support providers often face a severe lack of suitable, safe housing for vulnerable individuals. Finding private landlords willing to accept social housing tenants or agree to long-term arrangements can be incredibly difficult. Many properties on the open market simply do not meet the required safety and compliance standards, leading to failed inspections and delays.
When trying to manage these placements directly, the administrative burden of chasing landlords for repairs or dealing with sudden evictions strains your resources. Relying on unvetted properties often fails, leaving residents without stable homes. We solve this by bridging the gap between private landlords and local authorities, ensuring a steady supply of high-quality homes.
We provide a complete suite of services designed to support local authorities. Through our Housing Association Procurement, we source and secure properties that meet your specific requirements. Before any placement, we conduct rigorous Social Housing Compliance Inspections to guarantee every home meets HMO fire safety and local authority standards.
We ensure stability through effective Void Period Management, minimizing the time properties sit empty and keeping housing available. If a property requires updates to meet standards, we may handle the Refurbishment Coordination directly with our vetted contractors, this is on a case by case basis.
