Radius Housing proud to support Belfast Telegraph Property Awards
Anita Conway, director of development at Radius Housing, emphasised the importance of collaboration and evolving standards in the housing sector:
'We've seen a real transformation in how homes are being delivered. There's a new level of commitment to design, sustainability, and creating communities.
'At Radius, we are proud to be part of this shift — building not just houses, but forever homes that support long-term wellbeing, energy efficiency and environmental responsibility.'
The housing landscape has undergone significant change in recent years. Increasingly, projects are shaped by collaborative working practices, with communities, developers, planners, financiers and legal professionals working side-by-side.
That collaboration is vital in ensuring that homes meet not just today's needs, but the challenges of the future — particularly in delivering lower emissions, smart design, and improved living standards.
Anita said: 'For social housing developers like Radius, it's especially important to get things right from the outset. From land acquisition and legal compliance to value engineering, everything must align.
'The legal professionals who support these transactions are instrumental in helping us navigate complex regulatory environments and unlock challenging sites. Their work underpins the success of every project.'
Radius Housing has first-hand experience of delivering ambitious, community-focused developments on complex sites.
From the regeneration of the Gasworks in Belfast to the award-winning Creevagh Heights in Derry/Londonderry, Radius developments are designed with sustainability, community integration, and long-term value in mind. These projects demonstrate how innovation in design and delivery can transform brownfield and urban spaces into thriving neighbourhoods.

The Belfast Telegraph Property Awards also shine a spotlight on those working behind the scenes. From residential to commercial, office space to community hubs, every successful development is the result of a joined-up effort.
The recognition of legal professionals as part of the awards reflects their essential role in this process — ensuring projects move forward smoothly, securely, and efficiently.
Anita said: 'At a time when the sector faces unprecedented challenges — from inflation and materials costs to shifting regulations — events like the Belfast Telegraph Property Awards are more important than ever. They not only honour achievement, but they also help set the standard for what comes next.'
With the property and housing sectors continuing to evolve, Radius Housing remains committed to innovation, collaboration, and community.
As the industry drives forward into a more sustainable, inclusive future, the awards serve as both a celebration and a reminder of the hard work, professionalism, and passion that make it all possible.

Why Progressive is backing new housing in Northern Ireland
Residential Development of the Year Progressive Building Society is throwing its support behind Northern Ireland's booming housing sector by sponsoring the Residential Development of the Year category at the 2025 Belfast Telegraph Property Awards. As Northern Ireland's largest locally-owned building society, Progressive believes the need for new homes is more urgent than ever. Chief executive Michael Boyd said: 'Demand is still outpacing supply and that puts real pressure on people trying to buy a home.' That supply-and-demand imbalance is reflected in the latest Quarterly House Price Index, compiled by Ulster University in partnership with Progressive and the Northern Ireland Executive. In quarter two of 2025, house prices rose 1.4% compared to the previous quarter. Prices are now 2.7% higher than they were compared to the same period last year — driven by improved lending conditions and a lift in buyer activity. Despite the challenges, Michael says Progressive remains focused on helping people across the region get on the property ladder, just as it has done for over 100 years. 'Helping local people own homes is central to who we are,' he said. 'With 11 branches and 180 staff, we're part of the communities we serve.' He added: 'Our strength lies in our understanding of the local market. We connect savers and borrowers within Northern Ireland, helping to fund homes for people who live and work here.' Progressive offers a wide range of mortgage options, from first-time buyers and home movers to re-mortgaging and self-builds. It also provides renovation re-mortgages and specialist products like their affordability booster mortgage, which will take your family members' income into account when working out how much you will be able to borrow. Looking ahead, the society is focused on building closer ties with new and existing mortgage brokers to expand its reach and deliver even better service to members. Michael said the Property Awards are a chance to shine a light on those helping to shape the future of housing across Northern Ireland. 'This is the property industry's biggest event of the year,' he said. 'We're delighted to be part of it - and to be sponsoring a category that celebrates the work of those meeting one of our region's most critical needs.' With new homes still in short supply and demand showing no signs of slowing, the spotlight on homebuilding has never been more important. Progressive's sponsorship reflects not just its long-standing role in Northern Ireland's housing market; it cements its ongoing commitment to helping more people find a special place to call home.
