Working together in Radcliffe
Radcliffe (M26) is one of the Greater Manchester towns we cover, about 7 miles north-west of Manchester. Whitefield is the closest neighbouring place we cover, at about 1 mile, followed by Prestwich and Bury. Within England, Radcliffe falls in the North West region.
Partnerships we can discuss around Radcliffe include design and build for a registered provider, Section 106 affordable homes and land-led schemes with a housing partner. As Radcliffe is in England, applications are judged against the National Planning Policy Framework, and the buyer of land pays Stamp Duty Land Tax (SDLT).
If you are considering a partnership around Radcliffe, we are happy to talk privately.
What you get in Radcliffe

How the rules work in Radcliffe
Councils and housing associations around Radcliffe can bid for grant through Homes England's Social and Affordable Homes Programme, which funds Social Rent, Affordable Rent at up to 80% of market rent, and shared ownership. Landlords of the rented homes must be registered with the Regulator of Social Housing. National policy also expects local plans to set a minimum Social Rent proportion for major development. Land to Homes is ready to discuss sites, partnership and delivery.
In England, the National Planning Policy Framework recognises build to rent as a distinct housing type, with affordable private rent as the usual affordable tenure. New private lets are assured periodic tenancies under the Renters' Rights Act 2025. Appraisals must allow for Stamp Duty Land Tax, Section 106 obligations and, where charged, the Community Infrastructure Levy.

Build to Rent Partnerships in Radcliffe: questions
What is affordable private rent?
Affordable private rent is the usual form of affordable housing in build to rent schemes in England. Homes are let at a discount to local market rent, managed by the build to rent landlord rather than a housing association, and secured through a planning obligation. Eligibility and the level of discount are set by the council's policy.
Is this an investment opportunity?
No. Nothing on this site is an offer or invitation to invest, and we do not take money from members of the public. Build to rent partnerships are agreed privately with institutions, registered providers and other professional parties, each relying on its own advisers and due diligence. We do not publish projected profits or performance figures.
What is build to rent?
Build to rent is housing designed and built specifically for renting, held in single ownership and professionally managed. It can take the form of apartment blocks or single-family houses. Homes are let directly by the owner or its operator rather than sold, and schemes often include on-site management and shared facilities for residents.
How do tenancy rules affect build to rent?
Build to rent homes are let under the private tenancy law of each nation. In England, most new private tenancies are assured periodic tenancies under the Renters' Rights Act 2025. Wales uses occupation contracts, Scotland the private residential tenancy and Northern Ireland the Private Tenancies Order regime. Schemes are planned with these rules in mind.
Do you work with partners on schemes in Radcliffe?
Yes. We discuss schemes in Radcliffe and elsewhere in Greater Manchester, including Whitefield, Altrincham and Wigan privately with professional partners. Nothing on this website is an offer or invitation to invest.
