What is a ALMO (Arms Length Management Organisation)?
An arms length management organisation (ALMO) is a company set up by a local authority to manage and improve part or all of its housing stock. The company is owned by the Local Authority and operates under the terms of a management agreement between the local authority and the ALMO. High performing ALMOs are entitled to additional funding from Government to bring homes up to a modern, Decent Homes, standard.
