Delivering an asset-management strategy that drives your ambitions

DELIVERING AN ASSET MANAGEMENT STRATEGY

THAT DRIVES YOUR AMBITIONSRICHARD MEDLEY, FOUNDER & DIRECTOR, HOUSING dynamics

Asset Management is an area in which we can really have

AMBITION

www.housingdynamics.co.uk Richard Medley 07799 115571

So what are our ambitions

for the 2020s and how are

we going to achieve them?

As a sector, are

we ambitious

enough?

Let’s start by thinking about what asset management is all

about


Having the right assets, of the right quality, in the right place, at the right time generating appropriate value to the business planScottish Housing Regulator, Strategic Asset Management, Aug 2012, Recommended Practice

Let’s start by thinking broadly about what asset

management really is


So, let’s think about what sort of properties might constitute the

right properties, in the right place, at the right time – meaning

they’re fully ‘fit for purpose for the 2020’s?


Well let’s think first about what aren’t…

So, what is a MODERN HOME?

www.housingdynamics.co.uk Richard Medley 07799

So, what is a MODERN HOME?

www.housingdynamics.co.uk Richard Medley 07799

115571

Well let’s think first about what it isn’t…

Yet despite Decent Homes so many of our sector’s properties

are like this!

With issues such as:


• Stairs and steps meaning poor accessibility

• Low quality design

• Poor quality construction

• Difficult and expensive to heat

• Unattractive and unappealing appearance

• Dated and tired communal areas

• Uninspiring and poorly maintained grounds/landscaping

• Institutional entrances/doors

• Poor quality lighting giving inadequate illumination

And

more!

DECENT HOMES…….


The irony of Decent Homes is that it has constrained

thinking. It has developed an industry and a mindset

for treating the properties we provide as a series of

components rather than as ‘fit for purpose’ homes?!

So, we need to move on from Decent Homes.

What sort of homes do we need to be providing?


Let’s have a look…


So let’s create the

sort of homes we can

be proud to

provide….

And let’s create a wow

factor by thinking about

just four things!


Walls

Floors

Lighting

Doors

This is where MODERN HOMES comes in…

What does one look like? In addition to safe,

secure, fully compliant, in good repair, meeting

DHS etc…


• Level, easy access

• Good quality design with good space standards

• Good quality, properly thermally efficient construction

• Both easy and genuinely affordable to heat to help minimise energy bills

• Low overall utility and running costs

• Makes best use of modern technology (e.g. controls, self diagnosing boilers)

• Connected to the modern world

• Attractive, contemporary décor/environment

• Pathways and grounds of design/condition that set off the property

• Entrances and doors that have kerb appeal

• Good quality, low energy LED lighting

• Good space standards appropriate for the household

• Long term sustainable, to meet the needs of future residents

And

more?

!

All this sits nicely

with the Housing

Green Paper

which is inviting us

to move our

thinking on from

the 2006 Decent

Homes Standard.

And as the 2020s are nearly upon us…

I’ll share the big five things from the

CIH Assets & Repairs 2020 Group


• SAFE HOMES - We need to build trust and confidence in our ability to provide safe homes

• RE-INVENTING DECENT HOMES - We need to drive up the quality of our homes and

neighbourhoods through ambition

• INNOVATION & TECHNOLOGY - We need to improve services, be more effective and reduce

costs by embracing the use of new technology to provide and maintain modern homes

• MONITORING & MEASURING THE RIGHT THINGS – We need to stop hitting the target but

missing the point

• THE RIGHT PEOPLE, THE RIGHT SKILLS - We need to develop the right people with the right

skills and the right expertise

OUR FUTURE HOMES PRINCIPLES

Our new Future Homes Principles

We need to have drive and ambition to make sure the buildings, homes and places we provide are:

• SAFE – they are in a condition that inhibits risk, danger or injury to our customers and the community

• HEALTHY – they actively support the physical, mental and social wellbeing of our customers and the community

• FIT FOR PURPOSE – they are modern, with features, attributes and amenities that meet the needs and demands

of residents

• SUSTAINABLE – they will stand the test of time, protecting the long-term needs of our organisations, residents,

neighbourhoods and the planet

We need a PRINCIPLES BASED APPROACH, all within an organisation’s own context

So let’s start to view our assets not just as individual

components from a stock condition survey but as a whole

housing offer, one that’s truly ‘fit for purpose’ and ‘fit for the future’


This is where the Asset Management Strategy

comes in…..

Introduction

o Demand – create and sustain demand

o Standards – condition and attractiveness

o Consumer Standards – a given

o Total Investment – limited pots of money

o Priority for Investment – bold decisions

o Targeted Investment – what return do we get e.g. NPV,

reduced voids, long term returns

o Future Proofing – Energy, Zero Carbon agenda

Ambitions

1. Homes and Communities where people want to live -consider what standards we need to achieve ?

2. Review performance of stock – is it an asset or a liability

and what is our role in Regeneration of Places as part

of our Strategic Investment work ?

3. How do we create homes for the future – key

considerations now and for the next 30 years ?

Homes where people want

to liveEmpty Home StandardStock Condition StandardsEnvironmental Standards

Quality Standard - Homes where people will

choose to live

Maintaining Components – condition and attractiveness of

kitchen and bathrooms, walls and doors.

Empty Homes Standard - A strategy of developing show

flats - increased spend on decoration and other incentives

e.g. carpets has helped attract new customers.

Using Data - the Insight matrix

o A tool for monitoring Performance & financial viability of our properties

o Used by SIG to inform investment decisions

o Used by Neighbourhoods/Lettings to identify areas needing Neighbourhood plans/Local lettings plans or marketing plans

o Ranks our 729 Housing areas - provides an Area summary

o Approx 20 indicators updated bi-annually, 1 years data

o Used across THG since 2015 – can identify trends and the impact of investment

o Net Present Value (NPV) - £30k

o Income v Expenditure over 30 years

o Rent & Service charges, 30 year investment costs, Repairs, Management costs, Arrears and Void rent loss

o Service Performance (SP)

o Turnover, relet days, ASB, Arrears, Repairs costs, Indices of Multiple Deprivation, Demand, Length of tenancy,

o Overall - Combines NPV & SP

o RAG rates to THG targets.

o SIG focus on Red & Amber > Interventions to improve sustainability

April 19 - NPV

Amber NPV’s have increased from last year, however are less than 2017. Separating out some schemes from larger housing areas has evidenced that there were issues which were being masked.

Conversion & Improvements

Sheltered review

High rise Strategy

Three Challenges Ahead

o High Rise Strategy – 20 high rise blocks

o Sheltered – mixture of one beds and bedsit flats –Blackburn and Calderdale

o Climate Change - what pace do we set for our Zero Carbon Strategy

This is in addition to the “day to day” job of decent homes, relet standard, compliance…

Future proofing and Climate Emergency

o Rapid growth in political and public awareness of the impact of climate change

o UK Government Net zero carbon by 2050 commitments

written to law

o City region, local authority and RP commitments to

climate emergency and net zero carbon targets

o Future Homes Standard by 2025 – no fossil fuels in new

homes

Implications

o A paradigm shift

moment?

o Planning policy and

building regulations

o Social Housing regulation

o Market change

o Technology change

Copy goes here

o Bullets go here

o And here

o And here

What are the financial implications?

o Renewable Energy retrofit

o Solar PV and battery retrofit roll out

o Up front capital costs circa £7.5m per 1000 properties

o ROI based on 6% IRR for a 20 year model (but on-going)

o 20,000 properties - £200m

o Existing stock – GSHP and ASHP

o Gas to renewable heat – overall cost neutral

o Property fabric improvements

Grenfell Enquiry – Future of High Rise?

High rise – short/medium priority

o Option Appraisals for all 20 blocks

o Key issues are Fire safety, Services, Energy, Heating

Retirement Living – Set the Standard

Conclusion - spend on our key themes

Homes and Places where people want to live

o What standards do we set?

o Internals and Externals – Kerb Appeal

Strategic investment

o Option Appraisal for ALL High Rise Blocks

o Retirement Living - invest or divest?

Energy

o Pace for our Zero Carbon Strategy

o Start now – links to high rise strategy.
