Building more housing leads to lower rents. One reason so many people get confused about this is that they look only at the rent of the new units. To understand the impact, it is key to take into account how the increase of housing supply affects the other rents.

More evidence of housing supply indicators heading in the wrong direction. Planning permissions down 20% Fewest sites granted planning consent since the dataset began in 2006. Completions in 2023 were down by 9% in England. Bigger falls across London and the south of England.

To make matters worse the government recently consulted on another new levy on development that will hit southern England heavily with thousands of pounds of additional cost to build new homes. So things aren’t getting any easier.

Something deeply alarming is happening in London: it's the only part of the country that's building less, not more. And while I'd love to blame Mayor of London, Sadiq Khan, there's another culprit that urgently needs addressing. (1/?)

I thought it might be worth looking properly at this claims that Help to Buy was inflationary. So I wrote this - Ignore the mistruths about Help to Buy: Government should trust the facts and back first-time buyers with a new equity loan scheme linkedin.com/pulse/ignore-m…
