The placement agency for supported-living property.

We place homes with registered care and supported-living providers — working with landlords, developers, housing associations, councils and agents, from first introduction to signed lease. Including C2 planning.

Property for providers

Both sides of every placement.

Finding a building is only the start. Placement means putting the right building with the right operator and staying until the lease is signed. We work for both sides of that introduction.

Property comes from

Landlords Place your property with a registered provider on a long-term lease, with the detail handled. Developers Bring schemes to us early. We help shape them around what providers need. Agents & sourcers Introduce suitable stock and we take it to providers who are actively looking.

Placed with

Supported-living providers CQC- and Ofsted-registered services needing the right building. Housing associations Supported-living schemes and stock partnerships. Local authorities Additional supported-living capacity in their area.

Three services, one team.

Most placements need more than one of these. Planning questions often decide whether a building works at all, so we deal with them early rather than at the end.

Property placement

From a provider’s requirement or a landlord’s property to a signed lease or completed purchase — matching, checks, viewings and negotiation.

  • Planning feasibility before you commit
  • Handled separately from rental placements

C2 planning, handled from first question to decision.

Whether a building can lawfully be used for residential care is often the question that makes or breaks a placement. We work it out early, choose the right route with qualified planning consultants and take the application forward.

Start a planning enquiry How C2 planning works

Planning decisions are made by the local planning authority. We never promise an outcome.

  1. 1

    Feasibility review

    Current lawful use, local policy, the building and the proposed service.

  2. 2

    Choose the route

    Lawful Development CertificateWhere the proposed use may already be lawful, confirming it formally.

    Planning applicationWhere a change of use to C2 needs permission, with pre-application advice if useful.

  3. 3

    Prepare and submit

    Drawings, planning statement and supporting information, coordinated with our consultants.

  4. 4

    Council determination

    We track the application, respond to queries and keep you and the landlord informed.

We place property. Care stays with the provider.

Registered providers remain responsible for their services and registrations. Our work is the property: finding it, checking what is known about it, solving its planning questions and moving placements forward.

Notes

  1. CareKey does not provide or arrange regulated care.
  2. Planning use, licensing and approvals are shown as stated by the landlord or agent unless we hold documentary evidence, in which case they are marked verified.
  3. We do not guarantee rent, tenants, occupancy or planning outcomes. Planning decisions rest with the local planning authority.
  4. We never ask for identifying or sensitive details about individual service users.

One point of contact, start to finish.

You won’t be passed between departments. We handle each placement ourselves, from the first requirement to the signed lease, and bring in planning consultants, architects and contractors when the job needs them.
