What is a Registered Social Landlord?
A registered social landlord (RSL) is a not for profit, private sector organization that provides affordable housing to people of the United Kingdom (UK). These organizations may be housing corporations, trusts, companies, or cooperatives. Each registered social landlord is registered with a non-departmental public body (NDPB) that sponsors and regulates the RSL. A non-departmental public body is a public organization that runs with relative autonomy, but is ultimately accountable to the government for its actions and policies.
