Miller Homes has formed a partnership with social housing provider, Incommunities, to ensure that new homes are available to more people in its communities.
To date, £36.4million has been invested by the housebuilder in the joint venture with the Bradford-based not-for-profit, used to create new housing opportunities for people in Yorkshire.
Formed in 2003, Incommunities manages over 22,000 homes primarily in the Bradford district, with additional properties in Kirklees, Wakefield, and Sheffield, with a clear focus on providing affordable housing, maintenance, repairs and community support to its residents.
Justin Tranmere, regional managing director of Miller Homes Yorkshire, said: “Incommunities fits perfectly with our own ethos of building communities, and making our homes available to as many people as possible in the region. It is proving to be a worthwhile partnership for us both and very pleasing to see our homes being enjoyed by those that Incommunities help.”
To date, the partnership has seen 189 properties from Miller Homes come under the ownership of Incommunities: 20 homes at Holmebank Gardens in Honley, 20 homes at City Fields in Wakefield, 12 homes at Woodsome View in Lepton, 112 homes at Hawksley Park in Huddersfield and 25 homes at Priory Fields in Crofton.
Aimee Law, director of development and regeneration at Incommunities, said: “We are committed to delivering 350 quality new homes each year in the West Yorkshire region and investing in the future of the communities we serve. Working with Miller Homes has allowed us to offer a range of very high-quality new homes for our customers, helping local people and families access homes they can afford in communities they want to live in.”
“We manage homes across West Yorkshire, with the majority in the Bradford district, so continuing to invest in communities like this remains really important to us.”
