Independent Advice Service

Is your organisation involved in regeneration, stock transfers, mergers and demergers, structural or governance changes?

 

The social housing regulatory requirements as set out in the Tenant Involvement and Empowerment Standard expectations state that:

 

Registered providers shall consult with tenants, setting out clearly the costs and benefits of relevant options, if they are proposing to change their landlord or when proposing a significant change in their management arrangements.

 

Ensure that you meet and exceed the expectations of the regulator by appointing Tpas: 

  • We can work as Independent Advisers to communities through proposed change such as Regeneration
  • We can independently review Landlords Offer documents and Charters against statutory and regulatory requirements.
  • We can develop and implement Landlord community and resident engagement strategies and approaches through proposed changes following our best practice guide to Independent Advice guide.
