Our dedicated Social Housing team has gained in-depth experience of working with a range of providers including both Registered Providers and Arms Length Management Organisations (ALMOs), and across a wide range of legal disciplines.

“Pannone has advised on a number of land acquisitions to support the development of new homes and the friendly and down to earth approach has been very welcome.  Pannone quickly developed an understanding of our needs and have helped to ensure that challenging deadlines were met. We have appreciated their positive and proactive approach to resolving issues and offering solutions.”

Clare Tostevin, Rochdale Boroughwide Housing

We support a number of RP clients including Harvest Housing Group and Great Places and we are the principal external legal provider to the North West ALMO Group, which is an association of a number of the North West’s ALMOs.

Our expertise in the Social Housing sector is complemented by experiences of acting for a wide range of private sector housing developers, such as Urban Splash, and a wide range of public authorities and bodies. Our reputation as a leading provider of legal services in the public sector is cemented by the fact we are only three firms on the Homes and Communities Agency’s Northern Legal Panel and our appointment as one of only four firms to achieve panel status with the North West Legal Consortium (a consortium of 25 local authorities and public bodies). Our expertise and experiences across a number of sectors has meant that we can use our understanding of these different market places when advising modern affordable housing providers who often interact with a wide range of different organisations.

We recognise the changing landscape of social housing and we aim to work with our clients to identify new opportunities and to face the new challenges caused by an ever changing regulatory framework and reduced subsidies. Our Social Housing team has grown significantly based upon recognised expertise in this market place and by delivering on our promises.
