About

We exist because empty homes shouldn't be the slowest part of housing.

Occupy is a mission-led housing recovery partner operating in the boroughs of St Helens, Trafford, Wigan and the surrounding areas across North West England. We bring operational rigour from outside the construction sector to a problem the industry has accepted for too long.

Mission

Return empty social homes to communities faster — measured in days, families, and pounds recovered.

How we operate

As a Housing Recovery Partner, not a contractor. Single accountability. Outcome-priced. Data-led.

Where we operate

Boroughs of St Helens, Trafford, Wigan and the surrounding North West — with capacity to mobilise across neighbouring local authorities.

Three things we believe.

  1. 01

    Utilisation matters as much as supply. Every recovered home houses a family that already needs one.

  2. 02

    Voids are an operational performance problem, not a maintenance problem.

  3. 03

    If we don't move the metric, we don't deserve the contract.
