Almond Housing Association was set up in 1994 to provide Livingston tenants with the opportunity of continuity in the provision of housing services following the wind up of Livingston Development Corporation (LDC), and many of our current properties were originally built by the LDC in the early days of the new town of Livingston.

We also own a substantial amount of new build properties, as the lead developer for the West Lothian Development Alliance working with West Lothian Council and The Scottish Government to provide quality new build homes for rent in the West Lothian area.
