Our History


Leeds Federated has been providing people with safe, affordable homes since 1975. The first homes we invested in were in the Arthingtons in central Leeds. We worked closely with Leeds City Council and other organisations which were concerned by the quality of homes to rent in the city at that time.

Leeds Federated has always been based in the heart of the communities it serves- the first Leeds Fed office was in a house in 14 Arthington Terrace- which had an outside toilet and needed upgrading- as did the other homes Leeds Federated had acquired in the area. Leeds Federated  rewired, reroofed and replumbed the homes in the Arthingtons and the Ebors.

Leeds Federated has been synonymous with regeneration in the inner city of Leeds and although the number of homes we have and the geography of where our homes are has spread across Leeds, Wakefield and into North Yorkshire, 40 years later, this was the start of a journey that continues today- we are committed  to building and providing safe,affordable homes that people want to live in.
