For many Landlords, the pandemic has shifted the way in which they engage with their residents. With the courts closed and job loss at an all time high... The "enforcement" approach became quickly redundant, post March 2020. Residents were struggling more than they EVER had before. And Landlords like Bournville Village Trust realised the "collecting with care" approach was exactly what residents required. A *care approach* that focused on: ✅ Supporting residents to help pay the rent. NOT... ❌ Enforcing them to pay the rent. --- In this episode of 'The Social Housing Podcast' Stephen Lawrence sat down with Gareth Sinnett to discuss how BVT have implemented this "collecting with care" approach. During the conversation, Stephen & Gareth discussed: ✅ The Homeless Prevention Fund and how this helped reduce BVT's higher level debt cases. ✅ Pre-tenancy support and the importance of getting tenants setup on the right foot from day one. ✅ Why BVT have created the "energy advisor" role for tenants.…

Do we have a “Pandemic of Disrepair?” 🤔 Over the last few months, there have been an increasing number of TV programs criticising the sector on the state of repairs and prevalence of disrepair claims. But what is the 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋 picture? i.e. not the “mass-media” picture but the picture from those who’re actually on the ground dealing with the reality of the situation. Well, for this week's episode of The Social Housing Podcast - we’ve brought on someone who knows that ‘reality’ better than anyone else. Russell Thompson FCIOB, Managing Director of Places Management at Places for People. During the conversation, Lewis Murray & Russell Thompson discussed: ✅ The effect lockdown has had on repairs and “the repair lag” that it’s created. ✅ The ‘fabric first approach’ ✅ Competing priorities; the need to build new homes as well as renovate old stock and achieve the Government's net zero and zero carbon targets.…

Let's jump back 16 months for a minute. It's March 2020 and the world is descending into what feels (and is for a lot of people) - a state of chaos. Virtually overnight... Unemployment has gone through the roof and claims for Universal Credit are higher than they've ever been. For HA's and Landlords, like Citizen, this spells out **serious trouble** "How are we going to service this debt, when so many of our tenants are facing such financial adversity?" ...was the question being asked by many HA's/Landlords up and down the country. But for Citizen Housing, this created the 'perfect' environment for the introduction of proactive engagement technology/processes. A perfect environment... that over the last year has led to their UC based arrears performance almost mirroring their general needs based arrears. And so for today's podcast conversation, Lewis Murray explores exactly how Citizen have been able to achieve that as well as how they've been able to recover over £600k in former tenancy debt in the last year. He's joined by Darren Newton & Paula Jenner, who've both been involved in the rollout of this "proactive engagement" program.…

There's an abundance of software/technology available to housing providers nowadays: ✅ Housing management systems. ✅ Debt/rent collection softwares. ✅ Customer experience platforms. ...and while all of this tech is great and very useful. If you're unable to tie all of these systems together. And get them to speak to one another 🗣 You're likely: A) Making the customer journey more complex and difficult than it was before you actually implemented the tech 🤦♂️ B) Not getting a "full picture view" of your tenancies because everything is operating in silos rather than together as a WHOLE. A.K.A. You're doing digitalisation NOT digitisation. Easy trap to fall into but a giant "inefficiency beast" if left alone.…

❌ Poor customer communication/service = Poor reputation. If housing providers have learned anything over the last 12 months... It's the importance of *quality communication* with tenants. Communication that's: ✅ Proactive. ❌ Not reactive. ✅ Gentle. ❌ Not forceful. ✅ 24/7. ❌ Not 9-5. And a shining example of a housing provider with that *quality communication* is Citizen. Which is why for the upcoming episode of The Social Housing Podcast - we've brought on Steve Hayes... (Head of Comms at Citizen) To breakdown how they've proactively engaged with their 30,000 residents over the last year - by thinking more like Amazon rather than a "traditional housing provider"…
