Is anything ever likely to come of the starter homes
initiative? It was launched by George Osborne towards the end of 2014 but there
has been little news since, beyond a few stories regarding funding concerns.
Meanwhile, the starter homes newsletter, which was getting increasingly
infrequent and was only ever a series of adverts for developments (none of
which contained starter homes) seems to have dried up, and the dedicated starter
homes website simply links back to a generic new homes website, as it did when
it was launched. Given the dearth of news about the starter homes scheme, it’s
tempting to think that it has been quietly shelved. Read more on the Guardian
