More than 600 "affordable" homes built in
Merseyside in the last three years weren't actually affordable. Data analysed
by the Press Association's Radar service shows that Homes England, a government

highest number of homes which missed the guidelines of being 80% of market value

homes built in Merseyside by Homes England between April 2015 and March 2018
did meet the guidelines. Read more on the Liverpool Echo website.
