Housing associations

Complex, and frequently confusing, accounting procedures for housing associations and registered social landlords (RSLs) can be a huge burden for a sector already under extreme pressure from a weak economy and the resulting increased demand for social housing. In the next year we expect to see the introduction of compulsory component accounting under SORP which may have far-reaching implications for social housing associations and financial reporting. 

The new accounting rules may not affect all social housing associations and our specialist team at Bevan & Buckland  can advise you on the financial issues. We have over thirty years' experience of acting for housing associations, charities and not for profit organisations.
