Harley Street Estates' Flagship Project: £10 million worth Portfolio of Properties Purely on New-Build Housing Projects



Harley Street Estates UK Ltd, a subsidiary of Harley Street Group Plc launched its pioneer housing project together with its partner company, ST Developments Ltd on Saturday, 13 August, 2022. With a sustainable Gross Development Value, GDV, the 4 semi-detached  residential properties, comprises, 2 units of 4 bedrooms and 2 units of 3 bedrooms houses. The aim is to fulfil the rising demand of housing in the large town area of Romford, the administrative centre of the London Borough of Havering.


Rupert Jones, Malaysian born  Entrepreneur and Group Chief Finance Officer of Harley Street Group Plc, explained that the development which commenced before the Covid-19 pandemic  in 2020, was partially to cater for the demand of the Medical Team and Staffs of Queens Hospital which is located within a mile radius from Mowbrays Road.

 ‘’ Covid has kept us behind by a year but we have managed to complete this project despite many challenges including shortages of materials, rising cost and conditions to planning permission. The success of this New Built project are based on the following elements, meticulous project management, amazing team work, stringent cost control and our well-curated project design and implementation.''


He added, the rise in the need for rental accommodation and new build homes has allowed the  independent company to cease opportunity and assist the local community by providing quality living homes at a reasonable pricing structure.

''This is a project that we are giving back to the community to rent new built homes with fixtures and fittings that comes with 10 years building warranty” 


The owner of the partnering company, ST Developments Ltd, Sukhbir Thind said, the success of these newly built homes have been based on mutual accountability and true commitment. Both partners focussed on a shared goal to deliver the project in the best interest of the local residents.


‘’We had our strength and weaknesses, however, weaknesses were overcome by partnership commitment and the nature of satisfying our objectives, we have managed to complete the project in a sustainable manner.’’ said Thind, of ST Developments Ltd, who was also the project’s manager and contractor.


Going forward, the company will be building 5 more 3 -bedroom properties in Romford. The groundwork has just begun. The GDV for this new project is expected to be £3.5 million. This will be followed by residential projects in neighbouring towns such as Hornchurch and Harlow prior to venturing into other parts of Essex. In the next 2 years, the novice company but not a stranger to acquiring sites and developing properties, would have created a portfolio of properties worth £10 million, namely on new build projects. These new build homes will be rented to potential tenants with the aspiration of giving the commoners the rights to buy when all the flagship homes are ready; this will allow people to have more control over housing in their chosen area.

The first four residential properties were inaugurated  by councillor, Seema Kumar who later in her speech applauded the clear community-based vision, excellent project management and strong commitments of both partners.

A poem for my Malaysia

This poem is written in Malay Language, my homeland's national language. It is written in the spirit of the celebration of Malaysia's 62nd Independence Day. It is not meant to condemn or based on any specific ethnicity, or person. It is purely from the heart and mind of mine for the love of my birth country, a moment simply for my homeland. Sejenak untukmu Aku bukan bukan Melayu kerana aku cukup Melayu, cukup Cina, cukup India, dan cukup lain-lain kaum. Aku anak Malaysia. Aku bukan bukan Melayu kerana aku atuh pada rukun. Rukun aku rukun negara. Usah disindir kepercayaanku kerana aku bukan calang-calang orang. Aku anak Malaysia. Aku bukan bukan Melayu. Aku tahu Melayu, aku hormati Melayu, dan aku cintai Melayu kerana aku anak Malaysia. Aku bukan anak India. Bahasa ibuku Tamil,  kampungku pekan Melayu, sekolah rendahku sekolah Cina. Kerjaku merantau dunia. Kini sudah dekad lamanya aku dikota Lon...

The Glorious Roses

If there is a plant I won't miss planting in my garden, it's roses. Though it's not easy ( especially with the presence of its mortal enemies), every season brings a new learning experience, and it's lovely to see the colourful blooms adorning my garden containers. Among them, the baby pink rose always makes me smile with its delicate hue and graceful petals. Why? Because it reminds me of my mum… On the other hand, it adds to my muse. Roses are lovely but have thorns; so is our life sometimes or quite often too prickly. But beyond the pain; the softness of its petals embraces us; the sweetness of its smell and the beauty of its whole. Life, much like a rose, is a delicate interplay of beauty and pain. The thorns symbolize the struggles and hardships that we inevitably encounter, making our journey sometimes, or quite often prickly and challenging. These difficulties, while painful, are an intrinsic part of life, shaping our resilience, fortitude and gratitude. They remi...

A Dream Journal

It was a normal end of school day, I was ready to pick my boys from the Shine Club- the after school club, right after concluding my very own fabulous chores  in the classroom that I work. Everything and everyone seems so busy, I picked my boys and just then I remembered, I left my bag in the classroom that I was covering previously. So, I went to the other class, got my bag and exited through the main office when I saw, the familiar face, the most respected figure in my life, my idol and my world, my everything waiting there for me and my boys with her kind smile, she held my little-one's hand and the four of us started walking home...and this is in real-time until I was wide awake when my nightly brain saw the fair flash of the wintry sunshine through the little opening of my blue velvety curtain. Time was 9 am and never in my life since I became a mother myself, I slept till this late morning. I woke up with a smile, feeling loved once again by the most important person in my li...
