Based in the heart of the Midlands, we specialise in delivering homes through thoughtful development and regeneration projects. By creating practical, comfortable, well-built homes, we aim to provide great quality, entry-level accommodation for young people and first-time buyers
Structured to make a difference
Structured to make a difference
The UK’s housing shortage reached chronic proportions long ago. With many developers prioritising larger homes and high-end projects to achieve better margins, affordable housing is in very short supply.
Suitable development land is expensive and hard to find, and gaining planning permission is often a slow and costly process. This means that even when smaller new homes are built, they are still out of reach for many.
At Rivoli Property Developments, our mission is to reverse the trend by delivering comfortable, well-designed, affordable homes where they are needed most. We approach every development and redevelopment opportunity with a critical eye to ensure we can offer the right balance of quality, sustainability, and value.

Providing Choices
Providing Choices

As a family-owned and run business, we understand the importance of priorities. Having a great home is a major goal, but for most of us, it’s not our only goal.
By developing homes that provide an elevated standard of living without breaking the bank, we offer our buyers greater levels of freedom and independence to live their lives to the full.
Community, Teamwork & Ethical Responsibility
Community, Teamwork & Ethical Responsibility
Our small, family-run business is really all about finding and delivering solutions that make a positive impact. By reimagining underused spaces, we can deliver attractive homes faster, while keeping costs and environmental impact lower. This means we can offer a credible option to those trying and failing to get a foothold on the property ladder.
Working in partnership with honest, accountable, knowledgeable collaborators, we create fair outcomes for everyone.
We measure our success by the lives we can genuinely improve, not the number of units we build.
Property development is about problem-solving with integrity, not cutting corners for quick wins.
That’s why we:
Never overstretch or gamble with investors’ money
Only pursue projects that make sense financially, practically and ethically
Always define our success based on everyone involved — investors, collaborators, communities, and future residents

Rivoli Property Developments’ team of qualified experts has been assembled to encompass a diverse range of skills necessary for development projects. From the architects and quantity surveyors through to the project managers who work with contractors to deliver projects, they are key to completing projects on time.

Stuart Mann
Director
Hi, I’m Stuart, Founder and Managing Director.
Throughout my life and career, I’ve been driven by one guiding principle — do the right thing — and it’s that principle that prompted me to found Rivoli Property Developments.
From my own lived experience, my many years volunteering in the community, and having a family of my own, I’m very aware of the situation many young people face when it comes to finding their first property. Often needing to leave home, they are unable to find affordable housing. The alternatives are limited: stay stuck at home or fall into a ‘rent trap’ that’s almost impossible to get out of.
Rivoli Property Developments is about bringing together people who understand possibility and know how to bring life to a vision that makes life better.
But for me, bringing buildings back to life is only part of our goal. We’re creating spaces that people want to call home, places that support wellbeing and help build stronger, healthier communities.
Working alongside Stuart at Rivoli Property Developments are his wife Jeanie, son Jordan and daughter Sophia.

Sustainability and Affordability — Getting the Balance Right
Sustainability and Affordability — Getting the Balance Right
Sustainability isn’t a tick-box exercise — it’s part of doing the right thing. Each Rivoli development is designed with long-term value in mind. From energy-efficient insulation and low-carbon materials through to practical features, such as EV charging and bike storage, every detail is considered.
However, it’s just as important to us to keep new homes attainable. Finding a balance between environmental responsibility and real-world affordability is key. We develop homes for people who need them, and that means ensuring our costings and sustainability goals align.
