Value Proposition

Civic Place provides councils with a zero-capital, low-risk way to deliver high-quality, purpose-built Temporary Accommodation (TA) that dramatically reduces long-term costs while improving outcomes for households.

Our model converts under-used council land into modern, sustainable homes funded entirely by private investment. The council gains predictable, capped revenue costs, long-term control over placements, and a significant reduction in reliance on expensive nightly-paid accommodation.

Using an illustrative 40-unit scheme, the model reduces 40-year TA costs from £89.9m to £45.7m, creating a £45.2m saving, while also returning 20% of refinancing surplus to the council.

The result is a financially sustainable, socially beneficial, and operationally efficient approach to meeting TA demand—without the council taking on development risk, borrowing, or upfront cost..
