Britain’s housing is in crisis.📢🏡🚨
Today we launch a new report…
Housing Horizons: Examining Housing Stock in an International Context
We’ve analysed and compared housing markets across Europe and the OECD, to see how Britain compares to its international peers.
The evidence is clear: spiralling costs and plummeting availability are pushing homeownership out of reach for many and forcing the country’s housing market to crisis.

Ghana’s housing deficit stands at some 1.8m and it is projected that 200,000 units need to be built annually over the next 8 or 10 years to address the shortfall. What is govt strategy for addressing this shortfall in the long term? @mwh_ghana – at Accra, Ghana
Providing affordable housing is certainly a welcoming intervention. It will be helpful if further information is provided on how the five developers participating in the programme were selected as there are over 100 estate developers in Ghana. – at Accra, Ghana
More information will also be needed about the tenure and income distribution of the proposed 14,000 units in terms of housing? Affordability is a contested term so it will be helpful if further details is provided about how affordability is defined and applied? @mwh_ghana – at Accra, Ghana
