Land & Development Sites

Land that can support organised affordable housing.

OBH reviews land and development sites that may support decent homes, shared services, and well-managed communities.

Important: Sharing a site does not mean OBH will buy, develop, or partner immediately. It starts a careful first review.

What OBH looks for

Not all land is suitable for affordable housing.

A site must still protect affordability after access, infrastructure, services, construction, and estate management are considered.

Clear ownership or title path
Good road access
Water and power potential
Close enough to jobs and services
Large enough for planned housing
Socially and legally clear

Ways to work with OBH

Serious land needs clear structure.

OBH may consider different land structures depending on the site, ownership, demand, finance, approvals, and legal clarity.

Sale

A clear land sale where location, title, price, and development potential fit the housing mission.

Partnership

A structured landowner partnership where land may support a future housing project under clear terms.

Long lease

A long-term land arrangement may work where outright purchase is not the best first option.

Phased development

Large sites can be reviewed in stages as demand, finance, approvals, and infrastructure become clearer.

Review process

A careful first review before deeper work.

OBH first checks fit and clarity before any deeper technical, legal, valuation, or project work begins.

1

Share basics

Location, size, access, ownership, current use, and any known concerns.

2

OBH checks fit

The site is reviewed for housing use, affordability, access, and organised living.

3

Next discussion

Where suitable, OBH may discuss sale, partnership, lease, or phased planning.

Next step

Share a land or development-site opportunity.

Start with a simple discussion. OBH will review whether the site may fit the housing mission and guide the next suitable step.
