Property Prices Are Not Reduced By Integrated Social Housing

New research by the NHBC Foundation has found that house prices are not reduced on developments which successfully integrate social and private housing. The research, 'Tenure Integration in housing developments' found that mixed tenure developments are now commonplace in the UK and, contrary to fears, do not negatively impact house prices as long as the design and the quality of the housing is of a high standard. The NHBC Foundation, in collaboration with the HCA, commissioned a review of existing literature to explore issues surrounding tenure integration in new housing developments. It concludes that mixed tenure is now a part of UK life with most researchers agreeing that single tenure developments are now a thing of the past. Read more on the NHBC website.
