QWest Homes are a strategic partnership between Cheshire West and Chester Council and EQUANS. They are fully committed to a kinder and fairer approach to delivering housing for the Community. Delivering outputs and outcomes as a traditional private sector developer, but on a more efficient financial basis, with profit share that returns profit back to the public purse for the advantage of the whole community.
QWest are committed to improving quality and choice within the local housing market by providing a range of new family homes across a range of values and tenures. A kinder approach that is targeted primarily at local residents and priced competitively compared to local private developers.
Adding benefit to Cheshire West and Chester Communities
A key objective is to provide tenure blind communities, that will not only tackle some of inequalities in society but will also support the UKs journey towards a net carbon zero future. Our house types are developed using energy efficient methods and fully costed. We have a skilled sales team to support people across all tenure groups with the decision-making process. Our aim is to provide people with the information that they need to make an informed decision.
We aim to create safe, sustainable, and well managed local communities, enabled to maximise their contribution to the wider local and regional economy.
People are the heart of all we do
QWest Homes are committed to retain expenditure locally, using local supply chains, trades & sub-contractors wherever possible, including the creation of apprenticeship opportunities
The design of developments incorporates attractive aspirational street scenes, set around a functional and safe public open space. Providing a quality Cheshire based housing offer for aspirational families who are unable to afford the size of home they need in other Cheshire markets and the South Manchester market
A specialist approach
QWest are focused on delivering sustainable communities, ensuring that new developments are not simply seen in isolation, but will deliver the optimum benefit for the wider community. With a specialist marketing team, they are able to deliver mixed tenure developments. Our CRM systems are fully GDPR compliant and work in conjunction with construction methodology, enabling the end users of our homes to have as many choices as possible – which is key to ensuring a new house will become a home.

Shared ownership
We offer a variety of new-build apartments and family homes to enable you to get on the property ladder at a price you can afford. Shared ownership allows you to buy a share in a property — usually between 25% and 75%, at an affordable price, with shares typically purchased using a mortgage. Rent is then paid on the outstanding share as well as any service charges or ground rents.
