9,000 Midland House Plots 'Sat On' By HCA

More than one third of land held by the HCA is in the Midlands – meaning it is sitting on almost 9,000 housing plots. The agency has 1,500 acres of public sector land across the country, of which 596 acres are in the Midlands. The data was unveiled on CBRE’s Regional Land Report and a spokesman said there was major pressure on the agency with 80,000 homes needed in Birmingham by 2031. Typically, 15 houses are built to every acre, which means that the HCA in the Midlands is sitting on around 8,940 housing plots. Read more on the Birmingham Post website.
