Osborne’s Property Services business has been shortlisted in the 2016 UK Housing Awards in the ‘An Outstanding Approach to Repairs and Maintenance’ category.

Working in collaboration with Waltham Forest Council, Osborne Property Services maintain and improve 12,400 social homes in the east London borough, delivering an enhanced service that significantly improves homes and makes the borough a better place for residents.
