Welcome to the part of the Pathmeads Housing Association
website dedicated to Pathmeads Octavia Hill. We manage residential
properties owned by Grainger GenInvest and
Assettrust Ltd. See below for more information on
both of these property portfolios.
Grainger GenInvest Portfolio
Grainger genInvest is a joint venture company
comprising Grainger plc, the largest quoted residential property
owner, and Genesis a Registered Social Landlord.
We manage properties in:
- Waterloo
- Stoke Newington
- Maida Vale
- Walworth
- Vauxhall
- Pimlico
Background Information
460 properties were transferred from the Church
Commissioners to Grainger GenInvest in June 2005. This was followed
by another 1120 properties in March 2006 creating a portfolio of
1580 properties. Pathmeads Octavia Hill manages the residential
properties on behalf of the joint venture.
The Octavia Hill staff team are based at 324 Harrow Road,
London, W9 2HP, and manage a range of property types including
market rent and protected tenancies. There are also a number of
leasehold properties.
The majority of the properties are on traditional estates although
there are some street properties. Most of our estates have resident
associations which are funded by the landlord and supported by
Pathmeads Octavia Hill.
At present major works are underway on three estates
improving security, landscaping and the physical appearance of the
estates. Some remedial estate repairs are being carried out to
balconies and roofs etc. Residents have been consulted on the
nature and scope of the works and we have endeavoured to minimise
disruption and inconvenience to residents.
Asset Trust Portfolio
This is a newer part of our business. In February
2008 we took over management of homes owned by the Asset Trust from
PCHA, which is also part of the Genesis Housing Group. We now
manage approximately 300 properties in various areas for the Asset
Trust. This portfolio will continue to grow in the coming
months.
We currently manage properties including:
The Ovaltine Site, in Kings Langley, Herts
Point Pleasant, and Hardy Court, Wandsworth, SW18
Royal Arsenal, Woolwich, SE18
In addition new developments coming into management later this
year include:
Hunton Bridge, Kings Langley, Herts

The Forge, Westferry Road, E14

Background information
Asset Trust Housing Ltd is a private housing company investing
in affordable housing in England and Wales. They work in
partnership with Registered Social Landlords (RSLs), local
authorities, developers and property and service organisations to
provide high quality, affordable, homes for rent or purchase under
a shared ownership scheme by local people with housing needs.
Assettrust own the homes but local RSLs manage them on their
behalf.
Assettrust sell all of their developments on a shared ownership
basis from shares as low as 12.5% up to 75% on initial purchase
with a subsidised rent payable on the remainder. If you are
interested in shared ownership please go to the Assettrust website
at
www.assettrusthousing.com
Nominations to any rented units within these developments are
received directly from the local authority, so we are unable to
assist direct applicants.
