Significant events
- “The Government's commitment to delivering 1 5 million homes this Parliament is clear, however, the sector continues to navigate significant friction within the planning system and downward pressure on S106 affordable housing values Additionally, the lack of targeted support for first-time buyers and the ongoing issue of land viability remain critical hurdles”
- “The macroeconomic environment has stabilised over the past twelve months, with inflation now trending toward the Bank of England's 2% target, expected to be reached during 2026 This downward trajectory has facilitated a reduction in mortgage rates, with industry forecasts suggesting a further softening toward 3% by year-end”
