Local Authority

A Trusted Partner for Housing Solutions

Link Property is a dedicated partner for local authorities and statutory bodies, providing high-quality, safe, and compliant housing solutions for those in need. We understand the challenges facing local authorities – from budget constraints to increasing demand for appropriate housing – and have developed our services to address these pressures effectively.

Our collaborative approach ensures that each local authority partnership is tailored to meet specific requirements, creating sustainable housing solutions that deliver both immediate results and long-term value.

Comprehensive Housing Solutions

We offer a complete range of accommodation options to support your housing strategy:

Nightly Self-Contained Accommodation

For emergency and short-term placements, our fully furnished nightly accommodation provides immediate, HHSRS-compliant housing solutions. With an efficient booking process and same-day availability, we help you respond quickly to urgent housing needs.

Long-Term Accommodation

Our long-term accommodation options help reduce costs and homelessness statistics by providing stable, permanent housing solutions. This service offers significant savings compared to nightly rates while providing residents with the stability they need to rebuild their lives.

Shared Houses (HMOs)

Well-managed, high-quality Houses in Multiple Occupation that comply with all licensing and safety regulations. Our HMOs feature regular communal cleaning, CCTV monitoring, and careful resident selection to ensure harmonious shared living environments.

Adaptive Accommodation Solutions

Specialist housing for disabled tenants and those with specific needs, including wheelchair-accessible properties and homes with appropriate adaptations. We also provide cold weather accommodation under Severe Weather Emergency Provisions (SWEP).

Floating Support Services

Complementing our housing provision, our floating support helps residents maintain tenancies and work toward independence, reducing the risk of repeated homelessness and decreasing pressure on local authority services.
