FOR HOUSING ASSOCIATIONS
Your Supply. Your Standards. Your Pipeline — without the landlord management.
Registered providers and housing associations face a consistent problem: demand for placements outpaces the supply of suitable, stable private rented sector stock. Your supply expands when you work with Total Housing Solutions — without your team taking on the landlord relationship that comes with it.
The gap between referrals and available stock
Housing associations operating in London and the South East consistently report more referrals than they have placements for. The private rented sector has stock — but landlords who will work with registered providers on the right terms are harder to find and maintain.
Your supply is what Total Housing Solutions builds. We negotiate and hold corporate leases with private landlords, then licence properties to approved housing organisations. Your organisation gets access to the stock without taking on the landlord management burden that typically comes with it.
This works alongside your existing owned and managed stock — it is not a replacement. It is a pipeline that moves when your referral volumes require it to.

What your supply includes
Pre-vetted landlords — matched to your standards
You receive introductions to landlords who have already been assessed against the requirements of housing association occupation. Property condition, EPC rating, and landlord willingness to let to supported residents are confirmed before you see the property.
Schedule of condition on every property
You get a documented schedule of condition before occupation. This protects your organisation at the end of the licence period and gives your team clear reference for the property’s baseline state.
A pipeline that scales with your referrals
Your supply is not a fixed number of properties. As your referral volumes change, we build the landlord pipeline accordingly. You get a supply relationship — not a one-time transaction.
THS manages the landlord — your team manages residents
Rent, compliance, access requests, maintenance notices — the landlord-facing work stays with us. Your staff time goes to care coordination and resident support, not property management calls.
Lease terms structured around your funding model
Your supply is structured to work with local authority block contracts, enhanced housing benefit, and ICB commissioning arrangements. We do not offer a one-size lease — the structure fits your procurement requirements.
Geography that matches your catchment
Your supply is drawn from London and the South East currently. We are expanding nationally. If your catchment falls within or near this geography, your pipeline conversation starts now.
How your supply relationship works in practice
Step 1 — Needs assessment. You outline your resident profile: property size, bedroom count, location, any specific requirements. We confirm whether your requirements sit within current stock or require a build-out period.
Step 2 — Landlord sourcing. We identify, approach, and negotiate with private landlords whose properties match your profile. You are not involved in this stage. You receive a property confirmation once a landlord is secured and the lease is agreed.
Step 3 — Property preparation and handover. Schedule of condition completed. Any agreed works arranged. Your team receives the property ready for resident placement. Keys, compliance certificates, and documentation handed over.
Step 4 — Ongoing management. THS manages the landlord relationship for the duration of the licence. Your team manages residents. Any landlord-facing issues are handled by us. You deal with a single point of contact — not an individual landlord with their own expectations and demands.
Is this right for your organisation?
Your supply works well here if:
- ✓ You are a registered provider or housing association in England
- ✓ You have active referral streams but insufficient supply
- ✓ You operate in London, the South East, or nearby geography
- ✓ You need a consistent pipeline rather than occasional properties
- ✓ You want landlord management handled outside your team
- ✓ Your funding model includes local authority contracts or supported housing benefit
This probably isn’t the right fit if:
- ✗ You need one-off individual property sourcing only
- ✗ Your geography is entirely outside the South East currently
- ✗ You require ownership or long-term acquisition rather than a lease pipeline
- ✗ You have no existing referral stream and no confirmed funding
Tell us what your organisation needs. We’ll confirm what your supply looks like.
The initial conversation covers your resident profile, geography, volume, and funding structure. We confirm whether we can build the pipeline you need and what the timeline looks like. No obligation — just a clear assessment.
Properties typically sourced within 2 to 4 weeks of confirmed needs assessment.
