Building new homes

We're committed to building new homes. We need to invest in our homes and our future developments to deliver our vision of creating great homes together, for new or existing customers, whether they are buying or renting homes from us.

We’ll be making sure our homes are future-focused, healthy, safe, affordable by design and make us the local trusted landlord and developer.

By understanding what matters to customers, we’ll improve satisfaction with our homes and estates and will attract new customers. This is key to the delivery of strategy to make sure we have the right homes, in the right place.

We partner with others to create great places where people choose to live, with the right homes, of the right quality, in the right place. We provide homes that are affordable to rent or to buy to meet the needs of those in our communities, whatever their requirement.

We’ve already demonstrated an innovative approach through the modern methods of construction programme for our new homes. This will continue throughout all our supply and investment activities. We’re looking at new technologies to improve efficiency and alternative procurement arrangements to help deliver our environmental ambitions.

We work with Rollalong, a local offsite constructor, to provide our high-quality modular homes. This modern method of construction (MMC) helps eliminate the gap between predicted and actual performance, has environmental benefits and provides a higher-quality final product.

We’re also using best practice developed by and for the construction industry to make sure that we get the benefits from our investments and that we look at the wider impact of our developments on our customers and our communities.

We are actively buying land for redevelopment across Dorset and Somerset, securing planning consents and working with consultants and contractors to build our new homes.

All of our rented properties are advertised and allocated through the choice-based lettings schemes in Somerset and Dorset. You can find out how to apply here.
