Notes to Editors
Telford Homes is an established residential property developer focusing on the regeneration of brownfield sites in the East and North London area. The Group's strong public sector partnerships afford it a certain level of security of sales before commencing development. Whilst the majority of every scheme is residential, often some commercial units are required as a condition of the planning consent, which may be used for office space, retail units, or community facilities.
The Group's successful record of selling properties at an early stage in the development allows greater visibility. Telford Homes also has an excellent track record of working with housing associations and has forged many strong relationships, and typically part of every development is sold for affordable housing. The Group's affiliations with housing associations in the area have meant that during this downturn in the open housing market the Group is able to deliver some developments as 100% affordable housing schemes.
Telford Homes has secured grant funding of £73 million from the Homes and Communities Agency ("HCA") across five of Telford's own sites and three estate regeneration partnership projects with Eastend Homes. This funding enables the Group to develop affordable housing sites with sales to housing associations already secured.
