Description

RHL has aspirations to be the best landlord in the borough and wishes to appoint a managing agent that can help realise this ambition. A more expansive list of company objectives is set out below
• to take a transfer of existing residential properties owned and let by the Rushmoor Borough Council;
• to develop/acquire property to assemble a residential property portfolio that may contain a range of tenures;
• provide quality homes for rent in the private rented market to meet housing need and create a revenue stream providing a return on investment to its shareholder (the Council);
• to remain financially viable and commercially sustainable;
• to assist the Council in meeting requirements for affordable housing and temporary accommodation where a company is the best means of achieving the required outcomes;
• to provide an efficient landlord service including housing management and maintenance;
• to maintain its properties to a standard that meets tenant's reasonable expectations; protects shareholder reputation and shareholder investment in the company; and
• create saleable, realisable assets should the generation of capital receipts become a priority for its shareholder.
