Affordable Housing FAQs
Who provides affordable homes?
Private developments
Most affordable homes are in private developments. Usually, a percentage of all houses or apartments in a private development are made available to be sold as affordable homes. These are sold at a discount to other houses and apartments in the development.
Land owned by the Government and Local Authorities
Another way of providing affordable homes is to build them on land the Local Authority owns. Land owned by the Government has also been made available for affordable homes.
