What we do

We build a mix of homes for rent, shared ownership and for open market sale, that are energy efficient and designed to meet the needs of our customers. We’re proud that we have built more homes for social rent than any other housing association over the past four years. Last year social rent homes accounted for nearly 50% of all the homes we built during the year. Social rent homes will continue to be central to our delivery programme over the years ahead.

We’re proud to be one of Homes England’s strategic partners, having received £240m to build 4,000 new affordable homes in the five years to the end of 2028-29. And we work in partnership with developers, land agents and local authorities to develop our new homes and are always open to new opportunities that will allow us to build even more.

We build homes

Our in-house construction company, Bromford Developments Ltd (BDL), plays an important role in the number of homes we build every year.

Our team of over 50 colleagues oversee the building of homes on each site, working in partnership with local sub-contractors from start to finish. In each of the last two years, BDL site managers have won NHBC pride in the job awards in recognition of delivering the highest standards of housebuilding on the sites they run.

Having our own construction company provides us with control over the quality of the homes that are built, and it gives us control over how and when homes are completed and handed over ready for customers to move in.
