It is suggested that this pattern remains consistent across sub-sectors, age and geography.<\/p>\n<p>Almost all respondents (94%) agree that housing priority belongs to one of three main groups:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>working households unable to afford properties in the market<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/councils-to-receive-share-of-215m-to-combat-homelessness\/39735\/\">the homeless<\/a><\/li>\n<li>vulnerable people<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It is also widely agreed that the needs of these groups are not being met and show signs of progressively getting worse.<\/p>\n<p>The general consensus across the board for the sector, prioritises social rent as the right tenure to meet needs in most instances, with more organisations than last year eager to deliver it.<\/p>\n<p>However, senior housing association leaders want to put a greater focus onto getting more people into affordable homes that meet their needs, as they realise the challenge they face to supply an abundance of required <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/sadiq-khan-launches-new-portal-for-londoners-to-find-affordable-homes\/42827\/\">affordable homes<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Despite wanting to make a change, obstacles such as land accessibility and financial arrangements still stand in their way of putting their ideas and plans into action, with 85% of organisations finding it difficult to get past these barriers.<\/p>\n<p>Further findings suggest that leading experts within the housing sector expect <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/report-reveals-construction-scale-ups-are-optimistic-about-brexit\/41636\/\">Brexit<\/a> to cause minimal damage to their businesses, apart from construction capacity and costs. Only 4% see Brexit as a barrier to building more affordable homes.<\/p>\n<p>Although\u00a0Britain\u2019s withdrawal from the European Union won\u2019t drastically affect demand for affordable housing, 94% of respondents believe it will reduce capacity in the construction industry. But this is in line with the wider construction industries views.<\/p>\n<div class=\"mk-custom-module-container\">\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The latest report from Savills reveals industry opinion into the common causes behind the UK&#8217;s housing crisis and how they can be altered. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":18,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[304],"tags":[666,591,571,570],"stakeholder_rel_tag":[],"contributor_rel_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-42953","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-planning-construction-news","7":"tag-affordable-housing","8":"tag-brexit","9":"tag-housing-crisis","10":"tag-social-housing"},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v26.9 (Yoast SEO v26.9) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-premium-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Housing sector not doing enough to solve the housing crisis, report reveals<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"The latest report from Savills reveals industry opinion into the common causes behind the UK&#039;s housing crisis and how they can be altered.\" \/>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/housing-sector-housing-crisis-savills-report\/42953\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Housing sector not doing enough to solve the housing crisis, report reveals\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"The latest report from Savills reveals industry opinion into the common causes behind the UK&#039;s housing crisis and how they can be altered.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.pbctoday.co.uk\/news\/planning-construction-news\/housing-sector-housing-crisis-savills-report\/42953\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Planning, Building &amp;
