Who Are We? We are primarily a social landlord, providing low-cost rented accommodation for individuals and families across Fife. Our History In 1991 a group of residents in Cardenden came together as part of a voluntary committee and registered what was then known as Auchterderran Housing Association. Their main aim was to secure the transfer of housing stock from Scottish Homes and improve their community. They successfully achieved the transfer of 131 properties in 1995 with a further 211 properties secured in 1997. In 1999, we felt that the name of Auchterderran Housing Association no longer sufficiently represented us as an organisation, due to our extending area of operation and it was agreed that we would become Ore Valley Housing Association.
