Keepmoat Homes Ltd is a housebuilding company in the United Kingdom that provides private homes for sale. Its headquarters are in Doncaster.

History

The company was founded in Rotherham by George Bramall and Dick Ogden as Bramall & Ogden in 1931. It acquired Frank Haslam Milan (founded in Doncaster 1928) in 1983 and changed the name of the combined business to Keepmoat.[2] Keepmoat bought Milnerbuild, a Leeds-based social housing repair and maintenance company, in 2010.[3] In 2012, Keepmoat and Apollo merged.[4] In 2014, Keepmoat was acquired by two London-based private equity firms, TDR Capital and Sun Capital Partners (UK).[5][6] ENGIE acquired the regeneration part of the business in February 2017.[7]

Operations

With an average selling price of £152,000, 72% of the homes Keepmoat sell are to first time buyers, which puts it at the heart of the UK’s need for more quality housing [8]
