Tenant Management Organisations

Tenant Management Organisations (TMOs) are formed when tenants
decide they want to take over the management of their homes.
Sometimes residents who have been actively involved in
resident groups for example, may wish to go a step further and
actually manage some, or all, of their housing services
themselves. We have several Tenant Management
Organisations that we work with and we can advise and support other
residents who are interested in this option.
When a Tenant Management Organisation takes
over the management of an estate, the council still owns the homes
and the tenants keep the same rights as other council tenants.
Tenant Management Organisations'
responsibilities vary but can include:
- organising repairs
- deciding on caretaking and estate cleaning priorities
- collecting rent and managing arrears
- employing and managing staff and contractors
- looking after public gardens and other shared areas
- controlling any estate improvements
- providing advice and support to tenants
Setting up and running a Tenant Management
Organisation is a formal process which has to follow government
regulations. We can provide specialist support throughout the
process.
