The Affordable Housing Team are always open to discussions with community groups or developers looking to deliver affordable housing. Our Community Led Housing page has further details of how we can assist local groups.
Delivering Intermediate affordable housing
To meet the needs of our local communities, we require 70% of new affordable housing to be provided as affordable rented homes. The remaining 30% can be provided as intermediate homes for sale. There are several schemes that affordable homes can be sold through. We recommend shared ownership through a Registered Provider of affordable housing.
