Consultancy

As the State’s largest non-government tenancy and property manager, Foundation Housing is well placed to offer these services to other clients. Services currently undertaken for others on a consultancy or fee-for-service basis include:

• Tenancy and property management
• Project management
• Capacity building
• Housing strategy and general consultancy

Tenancy & Property Management

Many owners or organisations with housing portfolios do not wish to take on the legal complexities of management services.  Foundation Housing can assist with the management of staff housing, beneficiary housing or housing leased on the private market.

We manage properties for clients in Perth, Broome, Port/South Hedland, Roebourne and Karratha. Our service includes all tenancy and property management tasks including rent collection and arrears management, lease paperwork, bond management, property condition reports, routine inspections and maintenance coordination.

Fees are negotiated with clients according to the size of the property portfolio and the services required.

Project Management

Foundation Housing has delivered a range of development projects using its own staff in key contract and project management roles. Our highly skilled Property Acquisition and Development Team has proven commercial expertise and can provide this service to other organisations seeking to deliver housing projects.

Consultancy & Capacity Building

Foundation Housing staff regularly serve as consultants on projects for other organisations that may need enhanced capacity and expertise.

Previous projects include:

• Feasibility studies and reports on potential development projects including stakeholder engagement and funding analysis
• Organisational or departmental audits, making recommendations regarding improvements or efficiency measures
• Asset management reviews of long-term liabilities, financial impact and overarching strategies
• Housing strategies including needs analysis and allocations strategies
