With the increasing cost and unpredictability of privately renting a property, affordable rented housing is in constant demand by working families, those who've retired and many more.
From April 2017 to March 2020 we developed almost 600 new affordable homes. We have investment plans to build another 600 affordable homes across Wiltshire, Mendip, Bath and surrounding areas by the end of 2023. These new affordable homes are for social rent, affordable rent and share ownership.
These properties will provide a stable and affordable home for people.
We work with a number of partners and local councils in developing new homes.
Whilst most of our new homes help to increase our social housing stock, any profits made from the sale of homes on the open market, are reinvested into future developments.
Shared ownership is a great way to get a foot on the housing ladder. Visit our shared ownership pages for more information.
We’ve recently signed appointed City Plumbing UK as one of three new suppliers for building materials. City Plumbing have shown themselves to be both reliable and agile and this new contract will allow us to implement more efficient systems and processes, monitor performance and ultimately offer value for money to our customers.
"The Social Housing Regulation Act has set clear response times for hazards – and for emergency repairs like boilers in particular – meaning housing providers like Selwood Housing need a trusted supply chain partner that can provide what they and their residents need when they need it. To this end, mobilisation and stock management formed a huge part of this contract, and we're proud to have an industry-leading infrastructure that can make this a reality. These logistics, combined with our team's extensive sector experience and absolute prioritisation of residents, make us the perfect partner for Selwood Housing." - Richard Adams, Sales Director at Integrated Solutions at City Plumbing.
