mhs homes
has announced that it will be investing over £50 million to build
new homes in the Medway area.
The programme will be delivered over the next four years and will
provide good quality, and highly energy efficient homes
at affordable rates for local people.
Ashley Hook Chief Executive of mhs homes said, “The need for
additional affordable housing is the greatest it has ever been. At
mhs homes we are committed to working with Medway Council,
and other partner organisations to meet this growing demand.
Transforming existing and derelict sites to build a mix of homes
for people to rent and buy under shared ownership schemes will be
an integral part of our aim to create neighbourhoods that people
can afford and want to live in."
Cllr Howard Doe, Cabinet and Portfolio holder for housing and
community services at Medway Council said, “I am very pleased to
learn that mhs homes will continue to invest in new homes in
the Medway area and hope that the proposed £50 million investment
will enable more young people to get a first foot on the home
ownership ladder.”
