It’s New Homes Week!
This week is New Homes Week which celebrates the importance of new build homes.
It is running from 3 to 9 February and the theme for this year is community – it highlights the investment new build developments bring to local areas and how they create a strong sense of community.
Here at Citizen our target between 2023 and 2026 is to build 1,650 new affordable homes and 300 homes for outright sale across the West Midlands. As a not-for-profit organisation, the funds from the outright sale homes are then reinvested back into the business.
Our customer Jennet Mkandawire moved into one of our new build homes at Cheltenham Croft in Coventry.
She said: “I am very happy with the house and it’s just perfect with the right size of rooms including bedrooms.
“I like the feel of my new home – I love the kitchen/diner layout and garden space.”
Our Executive director of Development, Nick Byrne, said: “It’s lovely to hear the feedback from our customer Jennet and how much her new home means to her.
“There is an ever-increasing need for the right homes in the right areas and we are as committed to building new homes for those that need them as we are to improving the places our customers already live.
“New Homes Week highlights the importance of new homes and we’re proud to be providing new affordable homes for those on the housing waiting lists across the West Midlands.”
