Weslo Housing Management manage over 2,000 houses located across the central belt of Scotland.

Lesley Kerr, Acting Head of Inspection at the Scottish Housing Regulator, said:

“Weslo is a newly registered organisation and this is the Scottish Housing Regulator’s first inspection of its services. While Weslo is a well established landlord, it only registered with us in February 2007. Our assessments and award of a C grade reflects a relatively good level of progress and achievement by Weslo within a short period of time.”
