Places for People has expanded its national housing portfolio with the addition of 6,600 homes, marking one of the most significant growth steps in the organisation’s recent history. The newly acquired properties strengthen its position as one of the UK’s largest placemaking and regeneration groups, broadening its ability to provide affordable, secure and well-managed homes across multiple regions.

The expanded portfolio includes a mix of social, affordable and market-rent homes in established communities. The acquisition is intended to support long-term investment in local neighbourhoods, enhance customer services, and ensure continued delivery of high-quality housing management.

Places for People has stated that the enlarged portfolio will enable increased operational scale and wider community impact, aligning with its commitment to sustainable growth, social value creation and improved housing provision. Integration of the new homes into the group’s national operations is already under way, with a focus on maintaining service continuity for residents.

The organisation continues to pursue strategic opportunities that contribute to housing supply, regeneration and community wellbeing throughout the UK.
