PROPERTY developer, Hello Projects, has unveiled 137 residential stands in Marondera municipality in a bid to ease housing challenges in the local authority.
The residential stands are part of the proposed The Rock City low-density suburb and will be the first ever gated community in Marondera.
Speaking during the launch of the housing project yesterday “Hello Projects chairperson, Among Maisvoreva said they were also working with the Municipality of Marondera “offering residential stands to those who are on the council waiting list because we want everyone to have a place they call their own home”
Meanwhile Marondera Central MP Caston Matewu, said assured residents that “the project is genuine, otherwise some of us would not be here”.
“We are happy to have such a housing project in Marondera and this shows that the town is growing rapidly and attracting meaningful investment”.
The Rock City gated community has 137 residential stands ranging from 1 000 square metres to 1ha plots.
The project also has land for a school, a shopping mall and a kidney transplant medical facility.
This comes as the Municipality of Marondera is currently battling to clear its housing backlog, with thousands of home-seekers on the waiting list for several years, failing to secure residential stands.
The ground-breaking ceremony was attended by Marondera mayor Chengetai Murowa, real estate agents, officials and home- seekers from in and around the town.
