There was some encouraging support for custom/self build recently via a feature piece on the sector during BBC Radio 4’s consumer affairs programme ‘You & Yours’.
Included in the piece is one 25-year-old desperate to get on the property ladder by building his own house, but first you hear Conservative MP – and Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Self Build, Custom Build and Independent Housebuilding – Richard Bacon who discusses why the Europeans are so far ahead in custom/self building and references his ‘Self Build, Custom Build and Independent Housebuilding Bill’ which is currently going through Parliament.
By clicking HERE you can hear the piece which featured last Thursday, 6th November, at 12:15pm.
