Housing associations sold 31% more homes on the open
market in the last quarter than the previous one, the Regulator of Social
Housing (RSH) has said. The RSH’s quarterly survey revealed that 1,171 market
sale units were sold in the period from October to December 2017, up from 897
in the quarter before. It was also a 7% increase on the same period in 2016,
when 1,094 units were sold. Revenue from these sales was lower than forecast,
however, standing at £700m, compared to the forecast of £834m. According to the
regulator, the difference between forecast and current asset housing sales “is
concentrated in a small number of providers”. Read more on Inside Housing.
