I’ve published an open letter on what I believe is one of the biggest blockers in Affordable Housing delivery right now. Planning reform matters, funding matters, but a growing number of schemes are stalling for a simpler reason, the buyer market for Section 106 Affordable Homes isn’t working quickly or consistently enough. No buyer, no sale. No sale, no start on site. No start, no homes. I’ve set out the issue in plain terms, and five practical actions that could improve speed, certainty, and transparency across the Section 106 route to market. Open letter (webpage + PDF): https://theaffordablehousingnetwork.com/openletter/ If you agree, I’d really appreciate any shares or comments to help it reach the right people across Developers, Affordable Housing Providers, local authorities, and central government.
