You can't make homes affordable by lending people more money

from Moving Home with Charlie · host Charlie Lamdin

Wednesday Weekly Workshop. Special topic tonight: Help to Buy. Housebuilders want it brought back. I have been saying all week why that is a bad idea. You cannot make homes more affordable by giving people more money to spend on them. We already ran this experiment. It inflated prices and left people in negative equity. Learn from it. Do not repeat it. This week's coverage: https://thenegotiator.co.uk/news/uk-housing-market-news/new-calls-emerge-to-revive-help-to-buy/ Bring your questions. Mark them Question in the live chat.
