Affordable Housing

  • Mace has supported Manchester City Council as it rejuvenates and expands its social housing stock.

Delivering affordable housing is a central priority for our clients and we work with local authorities throughout the UK on their innovative and pioneering social housing projects. We are proud to have set new standards and challenged existing practices in the sector, by converting commercial offices into “extra-care” schemes for the elderly and preventing homelessness and worklessness in communities.

Our experience means we understand the need for affordable housing and are helping customers to tackle poor housing conditions in some of the most deprived areas of the country. Mace was instrumental in helping one local authority develop a collaborative model of procurement for its social housing programme. The creation of this strategic alliance created significant savings in cost and time, and high levels of resident satisfaction.

Mace adopts a truly integrated approach, blending an understanding of the political landscape, inside-out grasp of sustainable solutions, and the ability to manage sensitive stakeholder and community engagement issues to bear on every project. This helps our clients to respond in new and innovative ways to the unique demographics of their communities. We focus on sustainable redevelopment solutions and can produce robust appraisals to compare remodeling to total redevelopment options depending on the need of our clients.
