Graham - thanks.

Kier have a wide spread of work throughout the UK. Their housebuilding side as well as their support services side does have a considerable emphasis on social housing.

RCT - thanks.

A bit more on the Kier project in Plymouth, in case anyone is interested. Kier seem to have a heavy SW focus. They are building student accommodation as well. MU

The profits in housebuilding in the UK generally come mainly from the uplift in the land value. This is why housebuilders generally build up land banks and make their money from getting planning permission on existing land. The only way I could see Carillion being able to get into this market would be to buy an existing UK housebuilder.

On the subject of new houses, does anyone think CLLN should get involved in house building. I think Kier do (social?) housing, unless they are doing the infrastructure for a site I drive past.

No doubt they will be in a position to pitch for some of the other work.

[redartbmud] 02/1/2017 22:05

Doubt there will be hospitals, but some of the other facilities are a possibility.

Not just houses need to be built when you create a new town or city. Everything - schools roads, telecomms, waterworks, bus stations, maybe even the odd hostpital if we are really lucky... and some of these will require services too, which Carillion also provide.

[redartbmud] 02/1/2017 10:28

Yes but Carillion don't build houses.

[edmundshaw] 02/1/2017 10:20

Someone's got to build all this stuff...

End of year bargain hunters around, low sp, nice divi & ideal target for a foreign predator

Like rolling a snow ball uphill, the price of this share is getting bigger and higher but needs a lot of efforts to achieve it. However, I believe this will change for better soon in the New Year.

[kcsham] 21/12/2016 19:35

Thanks Edmund, Just keep our fingers and toes cross and pray for the best. Good time will come.

[edmundshaw] 21/12/2016 17:50

I'll drink to that KC!

[kcsham] 21/12/2016 10:33

Oh! By the way, 321.4 in the new year is what I am looking for.Merry Christmas to all!

[kcsham] 21/12/2016 10:29

Edmund, You are right! It was 231.4 to be true and had been robbed for a bit. Never mind! Christmas is coming.

[edmundshaw] 21/12/2016 10:15

321.4p? You were robbed!

Season's greetings...

[kcsham] 21/12/2016 10:11

Just came in have another bite for 321.4. Now fully invested and ready for Christmas. Happy Christmas for you all!

[ny boy] 19/12/2016 08:33

Too cheap here, added this morning, watch out for a foreign bidder in Q1-2017

[kcsham] 18/12/2016 21:46

The shorters have 21.5% of this company and the share price is going to test 220p again soon. However, I am not waiting, I came in at just under 232p on Friday.
