Our Purpose

We exist to bring structure, transparency, and collaboration to supported and specialist housing by unlocking solutions that deliver measurable social impact alongside long-term economic value.

By combining sector expertise, market intelligence, and an extensive national network, we help stakeholders align need, capital, and delivery in a way that is both commercially viable and socially responsible.

Who We Work With

Whether you are a parent or carer navigating housing options, a local authority commissioner shaping provision, or an institutional or private investor seeking resilient, impact-led opportunities, our platform is designed to support informed decision-making and sustainable outcomes.

01

Parents and Carers

Educational Resources,
Informed Decisions

Supporting a loved one who may require supported living can be overwhelming. This platform provides educational resources to help families better understand supported living models, property considerations, and the wider system.

Important Note: We do not directly place individuals into accommodation. Given the variability in eligibility, funding, and provision across local authorities, we strongly advise engaging with your social worker, care provider, or local authority, who are best placed to guide assessments, funding pathways, and placement decisions.

Supported Living Providers, Commissioners & Professionals

Professional Collaboration,
Strategic Support

We work closely with commissioners, care providers, housing professionals, landlords and developers operating within supported and specialist housing.

Our resources and insights are designed to support:
  • Strategic planning and service design
  • Property sourcing and development feasibility
  • Understanding lease-based and specialist housing models
  • Navigating regulatory, funding, and procurement frameworks

We welcome professional dialogue and collaboration where there is alignment in purpose and standards.

Investors, Pension Funds & Private Capital

Impact-Led Investment,
Long-Term Value

Supported and specialist housing is one of the UK's most structurally undersupplied and defensively positioned real estate sectors.

We engage with institutional investors, pension funds, family offices, and high-net-worth individuals seeking:
Long-term, inflation-linked income
Government-backed or needs-led demand
Strong downside protection and yield durability
Assets aligned with ESG, impact, and social value mandates

Our focus is on investable opportunities that balance risk discipline with meaningful social outcomes.

Supported Living & Long-Term Housing Security

Long-term housing security including ownership is achievable for individuals with long-term disabilities, but it requires specialist structuring, informed planning, and coordinated professional support.

HOLD – Home Ownership for People with Long-Term Disabilities

The HOLD scheme enables eligible individuals to purchase a share (typically 25%–75%) of a property, with the remaining share retained by a housing association at subsidised rent.

Key characteristics include:
  • Homes England-backed funding
  • Buyer-led property selection (subject to approval)
  • Potential eligibility for Support for Mortgage Interest (SMI)
  • Designed for affordability, stability, and long-term sustainability

Shared Ownership

Shared ownership allows individuals to part-buy and part-rent, with the option to increase ownership over time through staircasing. Some providers operate disability-specific shared ownership schemes alongside HOLD.

Specialist Mortgages & Government Support

Certain lenders will accept disability benefits and Universal Credit as income. Support for Mortgage Interest (SMI) is available as a government loan to assist with mortgage interest, repayable only upon sale and limited to available equity.

Disabled Facilities Grants (DFGs)

Local authorities may offer grants often up to £30,000 or more for essential adaptations such as accessible bathrooms, ramps, and mobility modifications.

Working With Local Authority Commissioners

We acknowledge that as local authority commissioners you are central to the supported living system. We understand that you are responsible for aligning statutory duties, financial stewardship, market engagement, and person-centred outcomes with various responsibilities.

Commissioner Responsibilities

  • Assessing current and future housing and care need
  • Strategic planning across health, housing, and social care
  • Provider selection, procurement, and contract negotiation
  • Oversight of housing benefit, rents, and financial sustainability
  • Contract management, safeguarding, and regulatory compliance
  • Market shaping and engagement with landlords, developers, and investors

Common Challenges

  • Translating strategic vision into deliverable models
  • Navigating complex funding and benefit frameworks
  • Maintaining quality while ensuring value for money

How We Support Commissioners

We support commissioners with practical, market-facing insight, not theory. Our involvement can include:

Market engagement support and early-stage solution design
Input into viability, rent reasonableness, and delivery sustainability
Connecting commissioners with credible providers, developers, and aligned capital
Supporting discussions around lease-based and specialist housing models
Facilitating conversations that align care delivery, housing supply, and funding reality

Our role is not to replace commissioning functions, but to strengthen decision-making with commercial clarity and delivery awareness.

Working Together

We can help if you are:

Reviewing local provision or addressing supply gaps
Planning future supported or specialist housing delivery
Want to engage with providers or private investors for the first time or re-evaluating existing models

We would welcome a confidential, exploratory discussion to understand your priorities and constraints.

No—registration isn't compulsory. If you're not registered, just explain why on the application form.

We know some supported living organisations operate outside of regulatory bodies. In these cases, we'll ask for details about your current practices and the experience of your directors. The more information you share, the faster we can verify your account and give you access.
Absolutely! Many domiciliary care providers are now being asked to deliver supported living. If you need a property, simply register, complete the verification form, and tell us more about your plans.
Our members are based throughout England, Wales, and Scotland. Currently, we do not cover Northern Ireland. If you are interested in a specific area, you can use the 'filter' feature located near the top of the page.
From your dashboard, head to Buy to Order and fill out the request form with as much detail as possible.

Your request will be shared with our investor members, and you'll start receiving tailored proposals directly via email.
Once inside the portal, you can browse properties that match your needs. Simply click "book a viewing" on the property listing and you'll receive step-by-step instructions.

In supported living, rent isn't one-size-fits-all. Property investors look at the whole package—lease length, who covers bills, maintenance responsibilities, and services such as boiler or fire alarm checks.

As a guide, most landlords expect market rent based on property type and location. To get a sense of rates in your area, check Rightmove or Zoopla. After a viewing, you'll be invited to put forward a full rent proposal, including lease terms, so the landlord can make an informed decision.
That's exactly what our Buy to Order service is for. Fill out the form on your dashboard, outlining your requirements.

Our property investors are always looking for their next purchase—and with Buy to Order, they can buy with your needs in mind, ensuring a perfect fit.
If your service includes personal care, then yes—you must be regulated by the CQC. If not, you can still register and access everything SupportedLivingProperty.co.uk has to offer.
The core principle of the Community is to foster unity among members rather than separation. The only areas kept distinct are the property and demand portals, and this separation is purely for commercial reasons.

Providers have raised concerns about the commercial sensitivity of the information they share on demand request forms and prefer that their competitors do not have access to it. Similarly, property investors have expressed that they do not want other investors to view listings before they have fully secured a site.

Therefore, to address these concerns, property investors are restricted to accessing only the demand portal, while providers are limited to the property portal. You are asked to select access to either the property portal or the demand portal, with help available if required.

If you believe you genuinely require access to both portals, please contact us via email: contact@supportedlivingproperty.co.uk
Supported living is more than just a housing arrangement—it's a growing investment opportunity. It provides a safe and independent home for tenants who need additional support, while giving landlords and investors the security of long-term leases and reliable income.
Supported living property investments offer a powerful combination of stable, long-term income and the opportunity to create genuine social impact. By leasing to supported living providers, investors often benefit from:
  • Longer-term leases
  • No rental voids during the lease period
  • Reduced management responsibilities, with maintenance often covered by the provider
  • The reward of offering a safe, independent home to those who need it most

No, You would need to register to view properties available and if they seem suitable to your needs you have the ability to request introductions. This protects landlord privacy and ensures serious enquiries.
No. Unlike traditional letting agents, we do not charge commission on completed leases. The membership fees of £150 is the only cost unless you require any further support. All negotiations, lease terms, and financial arrangements are agreed directly between you and the landlord or through us if the landlord uses our listed services.
