We work with housing associations to help address the UK’s housing shortage and to create sustainable communities. Our social housing team is closely linked to colleagues who work with private sector housebuilders, regeneration developers and contractors. We also help central, regional and local government bodies.

KPMG is a leading provider of audit, tax and advisory services to large housing associations, working across areas including corporate finance, business transformation and process improvement. We have a team of over 250 specialists, led by Harry Mears, our Head of Social Housing.

Examples of our work include:

• Providing audit and tax services to housing associations across the country.  Our clients range in size from the largest national associations to smaller, more locally-focused providers. 
• Providing a range of advisory services, including assistance on recent and ongoing mergers between housing associations; working with a large housing association to develop and implement their target operating model; providing independent advice on bank and debt capital markets funding.
• Acting as pensions policy adviser to the National Housing Federation. 
• Joining forces with homeless charity Shelter to develop a comprehensive programme to get the country building the homes it needs. Read our report ‘Building the homes we need’.
