Building new homes

Raven has an active development programme aimed at building and acquiring 500 new homes by 2014. To achieve this we aim to:

  • develop homes on land we own
  • develop homes on land brought from private owners, local authorities and other public bodies
  • work with developers where there is a planning requirement to provide affordable housing
  • secure Homes and Communities Agency (HCA) and other funding
  • work with local councils and other key stakeholders including residents and tenants to identify housing need and the right solutions for a particular area 

Since our formation in 2002, we have built or acquired more than 309 new homes and have over 100 more homes in our current build programme.  Raven have a further 500 developments in its pipeline programme.

  • Reigate & Banstead
  • Tandridge
  • Epsom & Ewell
  • Woking
