Whilst there is a larger, traditional housing estate in Rugby, most of the properties within this lot are purpose-built with smaller external green space than is found on older estates.

Lot #6West MidlandsRenewal UK, West MidlandsPublished value£1,339,304
We require a ground maintenance service provider for Lot 6 – West Midlands
This is the largest of the 9 lots, encompassing the urban conurbation of Birmingham, Walsall and Sandwell.
Amongst the 125 schemes contained within this lot are 5 Livesmart schemes for older people and only one large estate (350 properties) in the east of the city in Alum Rock. The remaining schemes are mostly smaller, purpose-built flats and houses with smaller external space than would be found on a traditional estate.
The stock is widely dispersed over the West Midlands, with many leaseholders as well as tenants as our customers.
With the exception of our Livesmart properties, all of the areas to be maintained are external communal areas, where separate access arrangements are very rarely required. Additional information: To respond to this opportunity please click here: clarion.delta-esourcing.com/delta/buyers/select/… ↗
Lot #7Milton Keynes & OxfordRenewal UK, South EastPublished value£576,258
We require a ground maintenance service provider for Lot 7 – Milton Keynes & Oxford
We have grown extensively in Oxford in recent years with further development anticipated. As a result the stock here is modern with smaller external areas to maintain.
As would be anticipated in a new town the Milton Keynes stock is also more modern in construction than on Clarion’s more traditional housing estates. Amongst the Milton Keynes lot are 2 Livesmart schemes for over 55’s. Additional information: To respond to this opportunity please click here: clarion.delta-esourcing.com/delta/buyers/select/… ↗
Lot #8Plymouth, Exeter & Newton AbbotRenewal UK, South WestPublished value£622,219
We require a ground maintenance service provider for Lot 8 - Plymouth, Exeter & Newton Abbot
The bulk of schemes and estates in this lot are in Plymouth. Exeter and Newton Abbot are both much smaller in property numbers and are newer housing schemes with smaller amounts of green space than in Plymouth.
Whilst Plymouth does have a number of smaller schemes, the majority of properties in the city are on 6 estates. Like many older, traditional estate’s the external green environment can often be extensive. There are also 2 Livesmart schemes for older people in Plymouth.
As this lot is located in the south west of the country, it should be noted that that Plymouth especially can be rugged and hilly. Additional information: To respond to this opportunity please click here: clarion.delta-esourcing.com/delta/buyers/select/… ↗

The properties in this lot are predominately of modern construction with smaller green spaces to maintain than on older estates.
This is currently the smallest of the 9 lots. However, we are currently developing quite extensively in Bristol, so we anticipate that this lot will grow in size in the next few years.
