These
files advocate use of Limited Liability Partnership tenure
This tenure
can span all forms of occupation, investment and ownership
including pure rental; owner occupation; partial ownership;
equity release; social housing with or without occupier
participation; and residential investment by institutions.
In
this way LLP tenure bridges the social divisions that arise
through current housing tenures. It gives new flexibility to
create, manage, share or withdraw wealth from housing.
Participation can commence with pure rental. The tenure is not
dependent on obtaining a mortgage.
