Greenwich Council signs deal for prefab housing

Finefair Ltd knows that voids are one of the biggest concerns to landlords. Luckily, we have a reliable solution. You can guarantee your rent by opting to lease with a local authority instead. We have a great deal of experience with these schemes. In fact, we are the chosen partner for councils across London. We excel here, building a reputation as the top name for council leasing Greenwich has and expanding our first rate services across the capital.

As well as guaranteeing rent, choosing to work with a local council can help address housing shortages. This is because the local authorities will use the properties to house people who struggle on the private market.

New homes

Council leasing GreenwichLeasing is not the only thing Greenwich Council is doing to increase housing accessibility. They also recently signed a deal to deliver up to 750 new modular homes. The £300million project will create high quality prefab housing. This marks it as the biggest programme for factory built council homes since the 40s. It showcases how good prefabrication can be.

The biggest advantage of the prefab housing is how quickly it can be built. Most of the work takes place in factories. Then, homes are delivered to site ready to put together and finish. Generally the building takes less than two weeks. This is much faster than the six month turnaround for building on site from scratch.

Innovation

Many people have a negative view towards prefabrication because by their nature the homes are only temporary. However, there are also many people who love these homes. In fact, across the UK there is a lot of prefab housing from the 40s and 50s that is still in use today.

Modern prefab homes can be incredibly high quality. For example, they can be made of some of the most sustainable and eco-friendly materials. Innovation can also make them carbon zero, ensuring they are much better for the environment.

The designers of the homes are also hoping to change perceptions towards the housing. They will be working to ensure the craftsmanship is excellent and to get the internal layouts right.

Landscape architects will also be working to help create the new neighbourhoods. The goal is to ensure they have a strong identity and make new residents feel like they belong. This could create wonderful new communities.
