Realise

To realise a solution to the issues within the real estate sector, it’s clear that we need change to happen faster than it is right now.

The new Government will provide a fresh perspective. But will its ambitious delivery programme of 1.5m homes solve the housing crisis? The proposed "grey belt" supports not just housing but commercial development which enhances economic growth, but will that go far enough?  Viability is key to achieve this goal and will require a holistic approach across all aspects of the development cycle.

Regulations on environmental and building safety issues have added further complexities to the development process which has slowed it down and made it more costly. While these positively address the environmental issues and the future safety of our buildings, do the regulations create a barrier to development and innovation and how can the real estate sector address these effectively.
