Offaly and Westmeath are part of a 1,000 homes national strategy project.
A developer is announcing plans to target large scale housing sites across the Midlands.
Ciarán Fitzpatrick says the developments in Offaly and Westmeath are part of a national push to deliver over 1,000 homes per development.
The Fitzpatrick & Heavey Group CEO believes 'mega sites' are essential to tackling Ireland’s housing shortage at speed and scale.
In Offaly, projects are already underway with 150 homes in Tullamore and 75 in Birr, with additional land secured for hundreds more homes.
Meanwhile, Moate in Westmeath is set to see new 35 home development as part of the company’s expanding regional footprint.
