New kids on the block – what does the new Labour Government mean for housing?15 August 2024
By Rob Beiley and Amy Shaw
'Housing' looks very different to what it did even ten years ago, when the economy had largely recovered from the 2008/9 financial crisis.
We were pre-Grenfell and in an era of low interest rates where sustainability and net zero still seemed a distant challenge. The housing sector is now facing perhaps its biggest challenge to date: 340,000 homes are required per annum. The economic climate is uncertain, high-cost inflation, comparably high interest rates, 'beefed-up' consumer standards, regulatory scrutiny, contractor insolvency, combined with demands of building safety, damp and mould and net zero.
Staying informed becomes paramount. We are committed to providing those operating within the sector regular insights to help better understand and navigate the ever-evolving landscape. Below you can find the insights from our most recent edition.
