24 June 2024
We’re proud to have been ranked as the 31st biggest builder in an annual industry survey.
In exceeding our target for the number of new build handovers last year, we completed 611 properties in 2023/2024.
This placed us in 31st position in the Inside Housing Biggest Builders survey.
Of the completed homes, 249 were for Affordable Rent, 215 were Shared Ownership properties, more than 100 were available for social rent, 32 were for Rent to Buy and nine were outright sale.
Marcus Keys, Executive Director of Growth, Development and Assets said he was pleased with the Group’s ranking.
He added: “It’s very positive news to see the Group placed in 31st position in the Inside Housing Biggest Builders survey.
“We’ve faced challenges in the last year, much like the rest of the sector, but all my colleagues in the Growth and Development Team have worked incredibly hard to overcome these and deliver hundreds of new and affordable homes.
“By doing so, we’re helping people make their homeownership dreams a reality. We’re committed to providing the homes people want where they’re needed most and to be able to do that on this scale and across such a varied tenure type is something we’re incredibly proud of.
“Our strong relationships with local authorities and developers across our operating region have meant that we’ve been able to identify areas of great housing need and address this by delivering high-quality affordable developments.”
The Group is also ranked 31st for the number of homes in the pipeline over the next five years.
