Choice Annual Report
2024/25
Providing
Great Homes
We continue to deliver new homes across
Northern Ireland, ranging from major
developments to smaller schemes all aimed
at meeting the needs of the areas where
Choice develops.
•
Significant barriers to housing delivery
remain, including ongoing issues with
wastewater infrastructure and capacity,
delays in the planning system and broader
financial constraints within government.
Despite these challenges we managed to
start over 400 new social homes in 3 of the
last 4 years and completed 364 new social
homes in 2024/25.

•
April 2024 saw an important milestone for
Choice Group, with the first homes handed
over at Rosses Gate in Derry~Londonderry,
our largest ever scheme which will
ultimately deliver over 900 homes to
the area.

tenure project for Choice and alongside a
similar scheme in East Belfast (Park Avenue
Hotel), demonstrates the success of mixed
tenure developments.
