Planning and placemaking
Investment in land, as the raw material for housebuilding, provides the platform for us to deliver much needed new homes and communities, ultimately creating places where people want to live.
Why Crest Nicholson?
Over the last 15 years we have achieved an 85% planning success rate in bringing forward approximately 25,000 plots for development.
