I've got access to three buildings, two in Leyton, and one in
Stratford.

The manager of the estate management company was interested in leasing
all three buildings, when at the time i wanted just the one flat. I
told him that i didn't feel comfortable taking on all three on my own.
With help it would be a different story...

It'll need to be approached in a reasonably professional manner for
them to take it seriously.

If anyone is interested in setting up a housing co-op, shout here.
