2019 Construction & Engineering Awards

BUILD 2019 Construction & Engineering Awards 74 “Crafting quality homes is important to the North West’s home building market, as the region is in dire need of more homes that will help it support a growing population. The region is currently faced with an ever- increasing demand for properties given the investment that Manchester and Liverpool have seen in particular over the recent years. With not only rental prices but property prices remaining high and often unaffordable for many in the South and the range of services, jobs, amenities, lifestyle on offer now in the North of England, it has led to an influx of people returning or relocating to the North.” Jul19555 nitially, Hollins Homes was born from its sister company Hollins Strategic Land, which has been successfully obtaining Planning Permissions for residential use for nearly 10 years.
