Housebuilder expands into commercial sector

A housebuilder is expanding into the commercial property sector with its first industrial development in the region.

Horgan Homes has launched Horgan Commercial after securing planning permission to build 16 industrial units for sale off Buntsford Drive, Bromsgrove, and is already planning further commercial land deals.

The expansion into the commercial sector has been underpinned by a move to new offices at the Lydiate Ash Business Park, also in Bromsgrove, from its previous headquarters in Dudley.

The construction firm has concentrated on residential developments in the Midlands since its inception more than 30 years ago, latterly focusing on bespoke luxury homes in the £1 million+ category.

Director Sophie Horgan said: "The commercial arm of the business will bring together our…established supply chain to deliver high-quality industrial facilities across the Midlands.

"Demand for commercial property is high and we know that we can translate our skills in the residential sector to this market. This is an exciting move for us and we're looking forward to this new phase as we build on the success of the last 30 years.

"We're always open to discussion from landowners, agents or developers who have plots available, especially brownfield sites. As a smaller business compared to more mainstream developers, we can be more agile when it comes to finalising sales."
