Property firm Bradley Hall on track for £100m new build milestone

Property firm Bradley Hall is set to have brought £100m of new build properties to market by the end of 2018.

The company, which has offices across the North East, said it has been instructed on £91.5m worth of new builds so far this year.

Schemes have included a premium development in Morpeth, delivered by housebuilder Linden Homes, and another in Bedlington by Gatsby Homes.

Affordable homes added to Bradley Hall’s portfolio this year include the Valley View and Woodhouse Mews schemes in Gateshead, and homes and bungalows at Barnes View, Sunderland.

Matt Hoy, Bradley Hall’s director of estate agency, said: “This is a fantastic achievement for not only Bradley Hall, but also for the region as a whole. With new build developments comes new opportunities for a range of skilled jobs, a boost in the local economy and much needed opportunities for those looking for their first or next home.

“High demand for housing has been topical for some time, and we are now reaching a point where we can breathe easily knowing that we are on the path to resolving the ‘housing crisis’ within our region.”

Jonathan Rudge, the firm’s head of land and development, commented: “The development sector, and specifically the residential development sector, has never had greater focus in the Government’s policy agenda.

“In the Housing White Paper Theresa May talked of the need to ‘fix our broken housing market’, addressing the decline in home ownership and committing to a long-term target of delivering 300,000 new homes across the UK.”

He added: “As a firm we are committed to providing a full-service approach to housebuilding in order to support this target and are delighted to have reached such a significant milestone just half way through the year.”
