Long-term income.
Government-backed rent.
Real social impact.
Anointed Properties helps investors and landlords place residential property on long, government-backed leases with Registered Providers, CQC-registered, Ofsted-registered, and general social housing operators across the UK.
Whether you are deploying capital into a new income asset, or you already own a property and want guaranteed rent without the hassle of tenants, we have a route built for you.
Why social housing
Demand for supported housing in the UK now significantly outpaces supply.
700k+people in the UK rely on supported social housing

£11.1bnchildren's social care spend, 2021/22, up 41.6% since 2009/10
Local authorities and Registered Providers cannot find enough suitable property to lease. This shortfall cannot be closed by the government alone.
Responsible private capital and existing residential property, deployed through compliant lease structures with experienced providers, has become a critical part of how the UK now houses its most vulnerable residents.
The need is national. We work across the UK, matching sourced and adapted property with the providers and operators best placed to use it.
For investors
Income-led property assets, government-backed rent.
We source residential property across the UK, refurbish it to Registered Provider, CQC-registered, Ofsted-registered, or general social housing specification, and place it on a long Fully Repairing and Insuring lease. You complete with the lease already in place and rent paid monthly for the term.
- 5 years plus FRI leases, government-funded.
- Net yields of 9 to 11%, inflation-linked.
- Hands-off ownership. Provider carries tenants and maintenance.
For landlords
Guaranteed rent. No tenants. No voids.
Place your residential property on a long lease with a Registered Provider, CQC-registered, Ofsted-registered, or general social housing operator. We project-manage any adaptation and broker the relationship. The provider takes the tenants, the maintenance, and the compliance.
- Guaranteed rent, paid monthly, for the lease term.
- 5 years plus leases. Up to 25 years for supported living and children's homes.
- No voids. No tenant calls. No regulatory burden on you.
Why Anointed Properties
Three things separate us in this market.
01
Operator-led credibility
Co-founders Ana & Gavin Wakefield have run CQC-registered care provision for over two decades. They know what providers need, what councils commission, and what makes a property work for vulnerable residents. Our investment thesis and our landlord placements are built on operating reality, not spreadsheet assumptions.
02
UK reach, operator depth
We work across the UK, with relationships into Registered Providers, CQC-registered, Ofsted-registered, and general social housing operators. Depth of relationships, with councils, providers, and contractors, is what turns a sourced property into a successful long-term lease.
03
Stewardship as standard
Anointed Properties operates on the principle that property is a stewardship, not a speculation. Every transaction is conducted with rigorous due diligence, transparent fee structures, and a long-term view of investor, landlord, and resident outcomes. Our values draw on the Christian tradition of dignity, integrity, and care for the vulnerable. Open to investors and landlords of any background who share those standards.

Two operators. Twenty years in social housing. One firm.
Anointed Properties is run by Ana and Gavin Wakefield, married partners based in the East of England.
Gavin ran a CQC-registered care home for twenty years. He knows social housing operationally, from specification and adaptation through to tenant welfare and regulatory compliance. He has lived the day-to-day reality of running supported provision, and he sets the standard for the property we put on the market.
Ana brings deep knowledge and relationships across the UK property network, operating in it for the last ten years. She sources, negotiates, and brings the deals together with investors and landlords across the country.
Most firms in this space are either investor-led or landlord-led. We do both. We source, we own, we lease, and we operate ourselves, which is why our work for you carries the same care we carry on our own portfolio.
