Some quite out of touch comments in here, I think. Saying “unlikely they would imitate the stylish apartment blocks that can be seen in the likes of Paris or Rome.” when a large chunk of our population currently don’t have a hope of ever owning a home is pretty elitist, in my view.
They also mention 50m2 as being considered the minimum for banks to lend to you, I live in a three bedroom house that’s 100, a living space for one person can definitely be less than half that.
I really hope we can get more dwellings built that are affordable for a single person, that’s something currently missing from our market, I feel.
Thanks for clarification, that makes more sense. Standalones remain 30m2. Hmm I can think of some housing stock in my town that magically will become compliant with that change.
No neither do I; that was a non sequitur from me, just general musing/thinking aloud about the regulatory climate. Sorry!
I would think we’ve learned our lesson from that, but who knows.
Hope you’re right.
