CABINET NOTES: Update on National Housing Development
The Director of the Central Housing and Planning Authority (CHAPA), Mr. Mark Richards, was invited to Cabinet to present an update on the Division’s ambitious plans to construct more than 400 homes across Antigua and Barbuda.
Mr. Richards reported that CHAPA is already mobilizing resources and personnel to begin construction in the Belmont area, where the first phase will deliver 27 starter homes.
These homes will be built with reinforced concrete for durability and resilience and will be sold at one-third of the current market price, ensuring accessibility for lower- and middle-income families.
Simultaneously, preparations are underway for the construction of 76 homes in North Sound on a 10-acre parcel of land.
To guide the rollout of this project, model homes have already been completed in Glanvilles, and additional amenities are being planned to support the surrounding communities.
The housing programme will also extend to other constituencies, with two- and three-bedroom starter homesearmarked for development in St. Paul, St. John’s Rural West, and St. Peter.
These efforts form part of a wider strategy to expand affordable housing opportunities across the nation.
Over the past several years, the Gaston Browne administration has transformed the housing sector, overseeing the construction of thousands of affordable homes and placing homeownership within reach of many Antiguans and Barbudans for the first time.
This new wave of projects continues that momentum, further strengthening the government’s commitment to housing as a pillar of social and economic development.
Mr. Richards also noted that while progress has been steady, the availability of skilled labour remains a major challenge.
With greater access to construction workers, the pace of building could be accelerated significantly, allowing the government to meet the growing demand for affordable housing more quickly.

What’s the criteria to get one of the house please shed some light on that
Chapa seems to making more strides and sense than national housing
Antigua is forging ahead with full speed. Housing development is encouraging. People are yearning to expand in this buoyant economy. I witness the increase in the housing stack as I traverse the island.
Kudos to CHAPA for tackling housing accessibility. Reinforced concrete homes at one-third market price is a real game-changer
his is great news! Affordable housing is so needed excited to see families finally getting homes they can afford
Finally, some relief for working families. Owning a home in Antigua has been out of reach for too long.
The website link does not work.
Hope they won’t be built shitty like those in the past that are falling apart in months
Affordable my black butt. A single woman making $4000 a mother no children got turn down by the bank so unless u go marry those homes are out of the question!!!!
