Their projects cover a range of sectors including build to rent, later living, affordable housing, private for sale, student accommodation, hotels, strategic land, high rise, master planning and regeneration. Whilst they are residential led, projects tend to include mixed use with elements of amenities, commercial, retail and leisure.
