Affordable housing developer takes lease on 5,000 sq ft office

Affordable housing developer MyPad has taken the lease on nearly 5,000 sq ft of Grade A office space in Beeston town centre.

The fast-growing firm has taken the entire second floor at The Quadrant business centre in a deal orchestrated by commercial property consultants OMEETO.

Established in 2019, MyPad specialises in the delivery of affordable housing in partnership with registered housing providers and local authorities across the East Midlands.

Led by directors Tom Spink, John Turner and Dave Holland, the firm has grown rapidly in the past 12 months and now employs 25 people.

MyPad expects to add ten further members of staff over the next 12 months and is targeting 200 new home completions in 2023 – a significant increase on the 50 it has completed this year.

Co-owner and director Tom Spink said: “The demand for good quality affordable housing continues to grow and we provide our clients with land and works packages delivered by our in-house team as well as a wide range of local construction contractors.

“With our roots firmly embedded in the East Midlands, we were keen to move to premises that could cater for our rapid growth and The Quadrant was the perfect fit.

“Beeston town centre is easily accessible and the offices are within close reach to local amenities which are two important elements to meet our goals to grow the business by employing local people from a wide range of local communities.”

OMEETO and HEB are marketing the remaining 14,000 sq ft of office space at The Quadrant.

Chris Wright, director at OMEETO, said: “The remaining ground and first floor offices are available serviced and can accommodate requirements of between one and 150 desks. The location and high quality fit out make The Quadrant a very attractive proposition for businesses looking to relocate.

“We were delighted to work with the team at MyPad on behalf of our clients and I am sure that these premises will be the ideal fit for this hugely successful and growing company for many years to come.”
