Making Involvement Real: Taking over complete housing schemes and the tenants already living there requires a special sensitivity and understanding. In wholesale stock transfers, both the existing property owners and their tenants need to be convinced that the new landlord will offer them the best future.

Recent successes for the association include three competitive bids to take over Liverpool Housing Action Trust schemes with a programme to demolish or improve outdated 1960s towers, replacing them with modern houses and flats, community facilities and landscaped gardens. We have been using the latest 3D Virtual Reality technology to improve how residents are involved in developing the new homes.
