Is my property suitable for supported living?
Why suitability is about more than property type.
There is no single “supported living property”. A bungalow, block of flats or larger shared house may be attractive for one requirement and completely unsuitable for another.
Start with location
Provider demand can be highly localised. The relevant question is whether a provider has an identified requirement in the property's actual area.
Then look at the building
Providers may consider floor area, bedroom sizes, bathrooms or en-suites, self-contained units, accessibility, communal space, staff facilities, gardens, parking and whether adaptations are practical.
Floor plans matter
TSLC can make an initial assessment from the address, photos and property details, but floor plans are required before provider matching begins.
Commercial suitability matters too
A physically suitable property still needs viable rent expectations, an acceptable lease structure and a landlord willing to consider any works required.
Not every property will fit
Where a property is not currently suitable, we would rather explain the issue than create unrealistic expectations.
