Like many property investors, we did not have tenants at the forefront of our minds when we started our journey. But when we started managing our own properties, we saw how important the right tenants were to a neighbourhood. Good tenants could improve the area significantly in terms of better housing stock, reduced fly tipping, and reduced crime. This meant that we could see a direct correlation to our properties and better neighbourhoods. Over a decade of this delivery, we can show how lives have been improved.
We wanted to bring our tenant support model to wider communities, who could benefit from this different approach. Landlords have a moral responsibility to be part of the solution and not the problem, and unfortunately, there are still far too many who fall within the latter bracket. We have made it our mission to bring this conversation to the forefront of property investors/landlords’ minds. We want every landlord to undertake more impact investments, and we want tenants to demand better quality housing and support.
