RPs and affordable homes

Published On: 2nd October 2025

The Home Builders Federation posted on LinkedIn they had investigated the effects of lack of bids from Registered Providers (RPs) on housing delivery nationally and found :-

An estimated 900 completed Section 106 Affordable Housing units remain empty due to the absence of a contract with a Registered Provider.

Around 8,500 Section 106 Affordable Homes either under construction or due to commence construction within the next 12 months are not currently contracted.

More than 700 sites have been delayed or stalled in the past three years due to developers’ inability to secure an RP to acquire the Affordable Homes.
