Homes England has announced the outline of its strategy over the next five years as it seeks to meet the house building targets set by the government.

Its launch document lays out a total of six objectives to be accomplished during this period. The first is to speed up the construction of homes so that the country’s supply can be increased. Objective number two is to provide the largest boost to affordable and social housing for a generation, while three is to secure fresh investment for mixed-use and residential schemes.

The fourth objective is to work with partner organisations on regeneration and construction projects that drive growth at a local level. Fifth is to foster the conditions that enable a property sector that is sustainable and diverse. The final objective is to make sure all housing is high quality and safe.

In addition to setting out these objectives, the document also goes into detail about what will be needed to make them happen. It points out that land will have to be secured so that the necessary number of homes can be built.

Homes England chief executive Amy Rees spoke publicly after it was published. According to Mortgage Solutions, she said:

“I am proud to lead this organisation as we build on previous successes, embark on delivering our new strategic plan and continue our preparations to launch our new funds and the National Housing Bank by April 2026.”

Those with CeMAP mortgage advisor training will be hoping they deliver, as more homes are desperately needed.
