Why people choose us

With spiralling house prices over the last few years, it has become increasingly difficult to get on the property ladder. The low cost home ownership options offered by Southern Housing Home Ownership have enabled many to get on the first rung.

We're here to stay
SHHO is part of Southern Housing Group. Over the last 100 years, the Group has become one of the largest housing associations in south east England, housing 35,000 residents, owning and managing 19,000 homes, employing 500 people and working with more than 50 local authorities.
