Small for-profit landlord fails to meet RSH's regulatory standards
What was announced
The Regulator of Social Housing has expressed serious concerns about a small for-profit landlord which has failed to meet its governance or financial viability requirements.
Key points, in the publisher's words
- RSH found serious failings in Rentplus Homes Limited’s governance arrangements, with the landlord unable to demonstrate that its board has effectively responded to increasing risks, or that it has a robust business planning and risk management framework.
- Arrangements with its unregistered parent company to provide support failed to operate in practice, negatively impacting on Rentplus Homes’ ability to protect its social homes.
- Rentplus Homes is now facing significant liquidity pressures and is seeking to develop and implement plans to safeguard tenants’ homes from its viability risk.
