Central Housing Group

Central Housing Group is a residential letting and management agency that commenced operations in 2000. The company specializes in a Guaranteed Rent Scheme for landlords and provides accommodation services to local authorities. It functions as a trusted and award-winning agency within the London property market. The firm maintains memberships with the Government's National Approved Lettings Scheme (NALS), the Ombudsman Services scheme, the UK Association of Letting Agents (UKALA), and the Residential Landlords Association (RLA).

These affiliations underscore the company's commitment to established industry standards and professional conduct in its service delivery. The Central Housing Group Guaranteed Rent Scheme offers landlords a fixed monthly rental income for periods ranging from one to five years. This scheme is designed to ensure consistent rent payment even when a property is unoccupied, thereby eliminating the risk of void periods or rent arrears for property owners. The company provides a comprehensive letting and management service that includes regular property inspections, a full maintenance and repairs service, and protection against tenant damage.

Properties under the scheme are often let within one week, and the service extends across north, west, and east London, covering areas within the M25. The firm aims to provide a smooth, straightforward, and reliable service, handling day-to-day tasks such as lettings, maintenance, and tenancy management issues. Central Housing Group specializes in supplying privately rented accommodation to local authority housing departments for households requiring temporary housing. The company is a leading provider of key accommodation services to the public housing sector in London, having established long-standing contractual partnerships with numerous local authorities across the city for several years.

A core objective of the firm is to offer London local authorities better value and higher quality accommodation in the private rented sector for their tenants. The company's founders, David Feld and Romesh Muthiah, possess previous experience working as senior housing officers within local authority housing departments, which contributes to their understanding of homeless accommodation issues and the urgent needs of councils. The company's vision is to be a market leader in the provision of high-quality temporary accommodation, while consistently ensuring best value for its clients. Central Housing Group's team collectively holds over 60 years of experience in property letting, management, and social housing, including 15 years of management experience gained within Council housing departments.

All staff members receive appropriate training and are qualified to carry out management services for temporary accommodation for homeless households to a high standard. The firm maintains a professional and responsive service, with a focus on upholding excellent property standards to retain the trust and confidence of both its landlord and local authority clients, which has contributed to its organic and continual growth since its inception. The company's office is situated in Cockfosters, on the borough boundaries of Enfield and Barnet.
