ICR173: Fixing the broken housing market

ICR173: Fixing the broken housing market

This week on the show, I take a closer look at ideas for fixing the broken housing market, following the publication of the new government housing white paper.

The housing white paper, ‘Fixing our broken housing market’, was published earlier this week by the Department of Communities and Local Government.

In this episode I will take you through the key proposals in this white paper, look at some of the reaction, and then share my own thoughts on how we might fix the broken housing market.

There’s also a real life case study of a 25 year old who is desperate to get onto the housing ladder, and my suggestions for her.
