We are excited to announce that Legal and General has been appointed as Social and Affordable housing manager by ACCESS Pool with a commitment of £125m to the L&G Affordable Housing Fund. The fund will aim to positively impact hundreds of people's lives, focussing on “Equity and affordability” as its core social priority. The homes will align with Legal & General’s commitment of aiming to achieve net zero carbon by 2050 or sooner. In our latest LGPS Intelligence, we explain why we believe the sector offers investors a compelling opportunity to harness favourable dynamics in the sector while also seeking to target a positive real-world impact. https://lnkd.in/e7t9xv78 Past performance is not a guide to the future. For professional investors only. Capital at risk.

Although several consecutive budgets have failed to allocate further grant for #communityledhousing, or investment in the growth strategies the sector has been developing (i.e. me with Owen Jarvis and Blase Lambert), it is positive that there is a pledge of a £20m investment into an existing social finance fund to support some of the pipeline. Details are TBC, I can't say much more at this stage. But we will keep pressing for the full spectrum of investment and support required, as set out in our manifesto aiming for community-led development to grow to 5% of housebuilding. https://lnkd.in/gSGBHiZD

I was delighted to contribute to our latest edition (hopefully not unlucky number 13!) of the Bevan Brittan LLP Housing Finance Snapshot and share some reflections on issues I am seeing housing providers grapple with currently in relation to service charges and cost management. I'm happy to discuss the themes I talk about with any RPs facing similar issues. Great job Katie Dyer for putting this together. #housing #housingmanagement #servicecharges #leaseholdmanagement #propertylaw

You may or may not have heard about the new Housing Accelerator Fund. I was reading about this new program the other day on the HRM website and recently our government has acknowledged that we are short about 20,000 housing units and it's growing daily. To help battle this issue they are proposing that a minimum of 4 units can be placed on one property lot, previously this was a minimum of 2 units within the urban area. So my question is -- do you think this is enough? Is the governement doing enough to get ahead of the issue? What else can we be doing to deal with our housing crisis head on?
