SYMCA funds housing program with Sheffield City Council
What happened
The South Yorkshire Mayoral Combined Authority is supporting and partially funding a housing program involving Sheffield City Council. Under this initiative, Sheffield City Council will purchase all 41 properties, which are designed as a mix of one, two, three, and four bedroom homes. The majority of these units will be available through the council for affordable rent, with a small portion designated for shared ownership.
Why it matters
The initiative contributes to a broader programme set out by Sheffield City Council to deliver 2,300 multi-tenure homes across 23 sites. This programme involves over 70% of the units being targeted for private purchase on the open market.
