In the United Kingdom, housing associations are private, non-profit organisations that provide low-cost “social housing” for people in need of a home. Any budget surplus is used to maintain existing housing and to help finance new homes and it cannot be used for personal benefit of directors or shareholders. Although independent, they are regulated by the state and commonly receive public funding. They are now the United Kingdom’s major providers of new housing for rent, while many also run shared ownership schemes to help those who cannot afford to buy a home outright.
