We create better places

We are specialists in residential development and strategic land. But what we do is more. We create better places for people to live and work, places our customers and colleagues can be proud of. Through Wain Homes, the housebuilder, and Wain Estates, the strategic land company, we build for the long-term.

Wain Homes

Our approach to housebuilding is different. Operating in three established regions in the North West, the South West and the Severn Valley, we put people first. Building not just homes, but communities. Our aim is to grow our delivery of family homes across all three areas to 
1,600 by 2027.
