"We believe Shared Ownership represents a standout solution to the structural issues affecting the UK’s regional housing markets and should be viewed as a core element in the portfolios of institutional investors looking to combine quantifiable social impact with strong and secure, inflation-linked investment returns.” A standout quote from Ben Fry - Managing Director of Housing at Gresham House - commenting on the role of Shared Ownership in tackling the UK's lack of afforadable housing: https://bit.ly/4bGmq1H #affordablehousing #sharedownership #socialimpact

Can they react that quickly
The juggling act behind a 40,000 rental home plan: The federal government's newly renamed Housing Australia sees a 12-month window to buy unsold, complete apartments before the private market recovers. But while this could make a quick addition to the needed social and affordable housing stock the country desperately needs, it would do nothing to boost the country's total pool of available homes. Meanwhile developers such as Stockland and Lendlease are running their ruler over the tender documents. Financier Tetris Capital already says it's planning to bid for "well over" 1000 homes. #affordablehousing #socialhousing #propertydevelopment #financing https://lnkd.in/gW2Vgi3E

📖 NEW REPORT: Reforming the Right to Buy The Right to Buy has harmed the ability of councils to help those in housing need. Our report presents ways in which it can be reformed to give councils greater ability to protect and grow their stock. 1. A Buyers' Charter should be implemented, reducing the discounts available on homes, extending the length of residency required to purchase, with modernised criteria of which homes are exempted. The details of this Charter should be devolved to local councils. 2. Councils should be given confidence that they will not make a loss on newly built stock, by removing the Right to Buy from newbuild property and removing the cost floor rules. 3. Councils should be empowered to make the most of Right to Buy receipts by retaining the full value of the sale, having greater flexibility over how receipts are spent, and removing the cap on acquisitions. https://lnkd.in/euNQmwFK

Great piece in Inside Housing yesterday summarising recent changes to the rent settlements and spending review: 👇 - Rent Settlement - Increased funding for Local Authorities - Reintroduction of planning targets with greater scrutiny and interventions where not met - RTB reform in respect of receipts retained (more reform around discounts expected) All very positive! The one in particular I'm super keen to see the detail around is the rent settlement... 👇 Wider considerations / other interesting articles I've seen recently: - Increased for-profit providers: make up a small, but growing number of stock in the UK - Revenue opps in respect of biodiversity gains (especially in light of recent legislative changes) and carbon credits: Is anyone proposing / already doing this? - Labour / skills: Do we have the necessary labour and skills to not only build 1.5m homes, but also the respective infrastructure that needs to accompany it (look at the sheer number of voids and repairs backlog to show the issues with labour availability) - Big Builders: Do they have the commercial appetite? Slow release of homes to maximise profits has been a tactic leveraged at the big builders... will they change all of a sudden? They are driven by profit and shareholders after all... - SME: Hopefully a big revival here. I can't help but think community based SME builders will be key to delivering such a large scale housing transformation as was the case before in the history of large scale building programmes - Changes to hope value: Hope this unlocks sites and stops the wrong type of land banking - Budgets: A £22bn 'worse than expected' black hole in the finances... will this curtail the plans? 🤷♂️ - Sorry for unloading my brain thoughts on you this morning...Really interested to hear any thoughts / corrections against the above. - Interesting times in Housing at the minute, and this is certainly the most positive I have felt in a long time. Let's hope this has the desired impact! #housing #localauthority #housingassociation #government #spendingreview
More grant funding and rent settlement confirmed for next Spending Review

Too right. FT Lex column: “Global investors could spark UK house building boom” [via BTR (Build to Rent)] “Institutional backers attracted by high rental demand and low volatility of residential property market” Was good to chat with the FT ahead of this article about the attractiveness of BTR as an asset class from an investor perspective and the many benefits that BTR can bring to communities across the country and the economy: 🏠 Accretive housing supply 👨🔧 Higher rental housing standards 🧑🏫 Homes for key workers 🧳 Labour market mobility 🇬🇧 Regional growth & inward investment #buildtorent #btr #housing #rentalproperty #investing #assetclass https://lnkd.in/eVUgBvJD

🔻 MASSIVE shortfall in UK housing! 🔻 👉🏼 The government has a target to build 300,000 new homes every year. Last year, only 210,000 homes were completed (a 30% shortfall), and we have NEVER hit this target in any previous year either (ever)! 👉🏼 Savills predict an average of just 170,000 new homes will be built per year through the remainder of this decade, based upon a poorly performing planning system, reduced affordability and the discontinuation of Help to Buy. 👉🏼 The CRBE reported that the UK has failed to deliver up to 2.5 million homes over the last two decades based on targets set 20 years ago by the Barker Review of Housing Supply. 👉🏼 On average, there are now 15 renters applying for each property listed! 👀 I think it's pretty clear that we have a housing shortage! 😅 👇🏼 So, how does this benefit you as a property investor? 🤔 Well, what's the first thing every business needs...? 👇🏼 Clients! Customers! For an investor, that's your tenants for a BTL, or your buyers if you're flipping. And there are lots of them! A huge number of potential customers who need housing and are not being served. If you're considering getting into the property business, just like any other business, at least you know that client demand is huge! After that, it's simply a case of getting your product offering right and you'll be sorted! 👌🏼

So we now have it - the long awaited Housing Bill is published and the debate begins! Busy day so far with media interviews. Where will this all end - reduced investment, more landlords selling up and higher rents for tenants? What we need is a joined up approach to encourage investment in homes for rent across the social and private housing sectors. https://lnkd.in/g_yPZngw
