Alex Humphreys, partner at Apollo said: “Miller Homes has a strong presence in suburban locations that continue to see strong consumer demand, and we look forward to working alongside the talented management team to execute on their growth strategy”

Miller Homes chief executive Chris Endsor (pictured above) said: “This is an exciting development for Miller Homes in continuing our recent strong momentum. 

“Apollo has deep housing expertise, with a global platform, extensive resources and capital to create value for all stakeholders.

“The past four years have witnessed a period of expansion and strong operational performance for Miller Homes, as well as having to adapt the business in exceptional circumstances.”
