How it works ↓

Data: official registers: Regulator of Social Housing, MHCLG, CQC, Companies House, Food Standards Agency (dates on each page) · calculated 7 November 2026 · Methodology and sources

Social housing: who owns the homes in your area

4,578,119 social homes in 296 council areas: every landlord in each area, its homes there, and its Tenant Satisfaction Measures (satisfaction, repairs, complaints, Decent Homes) and regulator grade. 366 landlord pages.

Care homes: who runs them and who owns the operator

14,783 care homes with 486,823 beds: the CQC rating, the operator, the chain of companies that owns the operator, its accounts and charges, and the kitchen's food hygiene rating. 1,599 operator pages.

The site answers who runs the homes in your area, and takes its answer from official registers: who owns social housing and who is behind care homes. There is no advice or guidance here, and the site does not assess financial soundness; figures are given as at the register date, and reports may lag behind changes.

Whose social housing is in your area

Of the 4,578,119 social homes in England, a third belong to councils (as at 31 March 2025), and two thirds to housing associations and other providers (as at 31 March 2026). An area page, such as Leeds, names the landlord, while Tenant Satisfaction Measures (TSM) for 2024/25 help you compare it. The whole section: social housing.

Who is behind a care home

The CQC register as at 2 November 2026 lists 14,783 homes, each with a rating and an operator, and the chain of owners behind an operator sometimes leads abroad: Welltower Inc. from the USA holds 586 homes. Start with the care homes section or with Leeds.
