ALMOs

The largest team of dedicated housing experts in the country delivering value for money through innovation and quality advice that is pragmatic, reliable and consistent

Over one million homes in England are now managed by ALMOs.  Having been involved in the creation of the very first ALMOs (and the then DTLR template group before then) we have unparalleled experience in working with local authorities in setting up ALMOs as well as advising ALMOs themselves.

As the first ALMOs reach the first break clause in their management agreements with their local authorities,  and as the Decent Homes Standards are successfully being reached by ALMOs, we are  at the forefront of the debate on the future role of ALMOs.

For local authorities we offer advice on:

  • establishing an ALMO
  • the Management Agreement with the ALMO

For ALMOs we offer advice on

  • efficient procurement and partnering
  • regeneration projects
  • developing new affordable housing
  • corporate governance
  • the relationship with their local authority
  • new business ventures
