West Kent is a vibrant, community-based business providing affordable homes and services to people living in the towns and villages throughout Kent. We work to the principle that for our residents we are "more than just a landlord".
West Kent Housing Association was established in 1989 to accept the transfer of 6,300 homes from Sevenoaks District Council. We were one of the first large scale voluntary transfer (LSVT) associations in the country.
We work in south east England where there is a high demand for housing of all tenures and insufficient supply. Building more affordable homes in the area is a priority for us.
Our relationship with our residents underpins everything we do. Our residents are treated not as passive consumers, but as people with an active role to play in creating a better environment for everybody.
West Kent is a not-for-profit organisation and is regulated by the Tenant Services Authority (TSA) and the Homes and Community Agency (HCA).
West Kent Housing Association (Group) comprises of West Kent Housing Association and two subsidiaries; West Kent Extra Limited and West Kent Ventures Limited, under which there is a trading name of WK Consulting.
