Exploring Reall's Impact

‘All persons have to have somewhere to go live, somewhere to go home to. Nobody has ever considered the urban poor as a group worth investing in. Housing is transformative, and has the ability to change people’s lives. A lot of what Reall provides is a future, an opportunity. We are trying to create independent communities that are no longer going to be open to be extorted. A very interesting side of housing is that it creates so many jobs – it doesn’t use imported skills. You’ve got real potential to contribute to the economy of that city, or of that country. Because housing is an asset it breaks the cycle of poverty. The formal process of delivering housing brings economic value, personal value and social value. Reall fills the gap in affordable housing.’
