Our mission is to make a difference and to be ethical in everything we do.

The organisation began over 50 years ago as Retirement Lease Housing Association (RLHA) a charitable, not-for-profit organisation founded by a group of volunteers with a simple but unheard-of vision; to pioneer the development of sheltered housing for sale to people of retirement age. Today, under the umbrella of ELM Group we provide a tailored approach to all sectors of the residential property market.

With our reassuring expertise and knowledge of all aspects in property management, we offer a comprehensive, professional service to developers, private landlords, leaseholders, Right to Manage companies and Housing Associations across the South of England.
