Assisted Living and Specialist Supported Housing
At 365 Invest, our assisted living investment opportunities form part of our wider Specialist Supported Housing offering. You purchase and own the property, while a housing association oversees day-to-day housing management under a 25-year management agreement.
The housing association makes contractual rental payments in accordance with the agreement. Repair, maintenance, insurance and other property-related responsibilities are defined through a full repairing and insuring (FRI) structure, creating a more hands-off approach than managing a traditional buy-to-let property directly.Â
Assisted living is a broad term that can describe different types of accommodation for people who need care or support.

Assisted Living Investment Highlights
Property Ownership

25-Year Management Agreement

Contractual Rental Payments
Receive rental payments from the housing association under the terms of the agreement, rather than collecting rent directly from individual occupiers.
Professional Housing Management
The housing association oversees day-to-day housing management, reducing your direct involvement in occupier management and routine housing operations.

Housing with a Social Purpose

What Is Assisted Living?
Assisted living is a broad term for accommodation intended for people who may need additional care or support while maintaining as much independence as possible. The type of property, resident needs and level of support provided can vary.
At 365 Invest, the opportunities presented on this page form part of our Specialist Supported Housing offering. They provide suitable accommodation for people with additional housing needs, with a housing association overseeing day-to-day housing management.
As an investor, you purchase and own the property. The housing association’s management responsibilities, rental-payment arrangements and other key terms are set out in the agreement for each opportunity.
What Are the Benefits of Assisted Living Investment?
A More Hands-Off Approach to Property Ownership
Rather than managing individual occupiers directly, you retain ownership of the property while the housing association oversees routine housing operations. This can reduce your direct involvement in occupier management, rent collection and the day-to-day running of the property.
Contractual Rent Beyond Individual Occupancies
Rental payments are made by the housing association in accordance with the management agreement, rather than being collected directly from individual occupiers. Under the agreed terms, payments continue between occupancies, subject to the housing association meeting its contractual obligations.
Defined Property Responsibilities
The full repairing and insuring (FRI) structure sets out how repair, maintenance and insurance responsibilities are allocated. The management agreement also defines other property-related obligations, allowing you to review the responsibilities that remain with you before purchasing.
A Long-Term Investment Structure
The 25-year management agreement provides a long-term framework for the housing association’s management role and rental arrangements. You retain ownership of the property, with the terms of each opportunity available for review before you proceed.
The Need for Specialist Supported Housing
People with additional housing and support needs may require accommodation that is suitable for their individual circumstances. Specialist Supported Housing is intended to help meet this need by providing appropriate homes alongside housing management and, where applicable, support arrangements.
At 365 Invest, our assisted living investment opportunities form part of this wider housing model. Each opportunity brings together a residential property, a housing association and a 25-year management agreement that sets out the relevant rental and property-management arrangements.
For investors, this means owning residential property that helps provide suitable accommodation for people with additional housing and support needs, while assessing the individual property, housing association and contractual terms on their own merits.Â
