Operation Homemaker Report launched

Operation Homemaker - new HFi Report out March 2023

The HFi has launched a plan - called Operation Homemaker - to build 100,000 extra homes over a year and a half. The plan is set out in a new report launched today (Monday 13 March 2023) by the Housing & Finance Institute, authored by Natalie Elphicke OBE MP, an HFI director.

The delivery of the Homemaker plan will be spearheaded by a cross-party Housing & Finance Institute team including Natalie Elphicke, Sir Steve Bullock and Cllr Keith House.

The Homemaker Team are calling for a new national mission to realise the dream of a decent home for everyone who is without a home of their own - be that on the streets or in temporary accommodation like bed and breakfast.

The Homemaker plan will not simply help the most vulnerable households. It will also provide a £15 Billion stimulus to the economy – helping keep the construction industry going and boosting the economy as a whole.

The Homemaker Team are calling on the Chancellor to use his budget to back their plan. They say their plan does not seek new Government money. They are calling on the Chancellor to signal Government support to institutional investors and to enable current existing budgets to be used to back the plan.
