Who does Remington Hall work for?

Housing professionals at all levels have relied upon investigative expertise and support provided by Remington Hall for 30 years: property lawyers, housing association area managers, housing officers, and housing association legal departments all depend on the range of tenancy fraud solutions that Remington Hall offer.

How does Remington Hall help Tenancy Fraud cases?

Remington Hall's Tenancy Fraud team investigates each case thoroughly with comprehensive subject matter knowledge and finely honed expertise through 80 years of experience.

Remington Hall's starting focus is:

  • establishing at which address the consumer, credit and financial footprint of the registered tenant(s) is/are located;
  • where the registered tenant(s) is/are physically residing and where they are in residence on a daily basis;
  • the identities and length of residency of those individuals who are in occupation of the tenancy property.

Remington Hall reviews and scrutineers all the found data to produce meaningful intelligence reports to evidence the tenancy fraud to build a case for possession. Remington Hall uses the diverse range of professional data systems at their disposal - from aggregated consumer footprint platforms down to deep-dive specialist financial access which allows Remington Hall to compliantly identify all bank accounts for fraudstersand evidence at which addresses they are registered.

Remington Hall's reports are Fixed Fee which helps their housing clients with financial transparency and budgeting and avoids any unexpected costs.

If the client requires, Remington Hall can continue to strengthen their position through deploying their field team to undertake on-the-ground covert intelligence gathering, expertly obtaining critical intelligence from local human sources.

Additionally, Remington Hall's surveillance experts conduct periods of observations on the tenant(s) at the address where they physically reside to produce evidence of their presence there. Likewise, they conduct periods of observations on those individuals illegally occupying social housing properties.

Remington Hall's process servers serve timed notices on tenants on a daily basis and prepare witness statements to evidence our findings in possession claims.

How many cases does Remington Hall investigate?

Throughout 2025, Remington Hall produced 200 intelligence reports to evidence tenancy fraud. This vastly improved the intelligence picture for our clients, allowing them to make strategic decisions to regain possession of their housing stock so it could be re-allocated to those in genuine need.


How has this helped the UK financially?

How has this helped society?

The housing crisis is widely reported and the abuse of social housing stock exacerbates this. This also helps to combat homelessness.
