Hodkovice nad Mohelkou, a town in Czechia, had the opportunity to acquire a derelict nine-building site on its main square and bring this decaying town-centre brownfield back into use. We built a long-term financial model and sustainability assessment for the acquisition and a phased, building-by-building revitalisation, reviewed grant co-financing options against the town’s budget capacity, and prepared the procurement documentation for the works. The analysis showed the town could fund the acquisition and staged regeneration without straining its finances, opening the way to new affordable rental housing and municipal services on the site.
