Watkin Jones Overview

Watkin Jones looks to provide sustainable solutions through the assets we develop and manage. We aim to create places that will be attractive to live in for years to come, which help residents succeed in life through quality homes and the customer service they receive and which play a vital part in fixing the UK’s housing shortage. This in turn will create attractive, long-term returns for our institutional partners, encouraging them to invest more in the burgeoning residential to rent sector.
