About this listen

In this episode of The Voice of the Agent Podcast, I delve into the complexities of the UK housing crisis, exploring why politicians and housebuilders continue to fall short. With 14 years of missed opportunities, the housing market remains dominated by just 10 companies, leaving a significant deficit in home construction. I discuss the political motivations that hinder effective solutions and propose the creation of a national house-building corporation to address the crisis. Joined by Russell Quirk and Simon Whale, we debate potential strategies, including the use of public land and citizens' assemblies, to overcome the challenges of planning, land sourcing, and market dynamics. Tune in for an insightful discussion on the future of UK housing.
