Housing

The housing market is broken. Houses are too expensive, and are seen as a luxury instead of the necessity that they are

We need to put home first, whether as a government centred initiative or something built under something like the Tythe foundation.

Our aim is to make the housing market sustainable, by providing and maintaining properties that are built with purpose in mind. Houses and land shouldn’t be for profit, they are a place for people to rest and relax so that we can build tomorrow together.

• HMO-targeted building (young-professional targeted flat blocks/townhouses - getting people onto the property ladder). There is a real lack of HMOs now with it being necessary for most young-professionals to house-share under a dwindling number of HMO licenced properties
• More affordable family homes - we need to make it possible to afford a family home, where people can afford to bring up children.
• Nice places for people downsize to - good transport links and local shops, community atmosphere.

Important to this is areas where houses don’t just come with roads but with all the other moving parts - restaurants, shops, schools, doctors - a real working community.
