Irvine Housing Association is a non-profit making Housing Association, registered with, and monitored by, the Scottish Housing Regulator. It is also a registered Industrial & Provident Society and a charity- registered Scottish Charity No. SC042251. The Company was set up in 1993, with the assistance of Irvine Development Corporation, to provide a suitable alternative landlord option to the Corporation’s tenants in advance of the wind-up of the Development Corporation in November 1996. In October 1997 the Company was one of six Housing Associations invited by Dumfries and Galloway Council, and a Steering Group of tenants, to submit proposals to the Council to take over and manage some 400 properties in the Stakeford area of Dumfries. The Company worked closely with the tenants in Stakeford in developing its detailed proposals. In October 1998 the tenants voted decisively to transfer their homes from the Council to Irvine Housing Association. The Large Scale Voluntary Transfer of 384 properties from Dumfries & Galloway Council took place in March 1999. This increased the Company’s rented housing stock at that time (taking account of tenants who had exercised their preserved right to buy) to 1,902.
