Thank you for your feedback. The consultation for this policy has now closed.

Overview
This consultation is for Waltham Forest residents, particularly those living in council-owned or managed housing.

We are seeking your feedback on our proposed draft Housing Asset Management Strategy for 2026–2031. This strategy outlines how we’ll manage, maintain and invest in council homes over the next five years.

It focuses on:

  • Keeping homes safe, warm, and energy-efficient
  • Making sure homes meet Decent Homes Standards
  • Improving resident satisfaction
  • Investing money wisely and sustainably

This strategy supports our broader Housing Strategy (2024–2029) and helps us tackle the housing crisis while working towards achieving net zero.

What is the Housing Asset Management strategy?
The strategy aims to build on the lessons learned from implementing the previous strategy and respond to new regulations, consumer standards, and evolving financial conditions.

The main aims of the strategy are:

  • Provide homes for residents that are safe, warm and energy efficient
  • Deliver value for money
  • Invest responsibility within our budgets.

Before completing the survey, please read the draft Housing Asset Management strategy.

Consultation period
Resident consultation took place between Monday 13 October and Wednesday 12 November 2025.
