The capital鈥檚 housing needs have been well documented and debated, and the Housing Corporation has made sizable allocations to help address them. The priorities are to increase the supply of affordable housing, reduce homelessness, modernise the private rented sector, bring social housing up to the decent homes standard and create sustainable communities.

The South-east and the South-west have quite different housing needs. The South-east shares many issues in common with the capital, needing to address problems of homelessness and affordability. Homes are needed across the tenure spectrum from social rented, through intermediate market and shared equity to private sector renewal. The region encompasses areas requiring urban regeneration and new areas of housing growth and strategic land release. The South-west simply needs more affordable homes in growth areas, rural villages and in its market and coastal towns.

In the East of England some 40% of investment is dedicated to housing growth and some 30% to regeneration. The East Midlands has the key Milton Keynes-South Midlands housing growth area within its territory, but also has pressing needs for regeneration and for homes to be brought up to the decent homes standard. Urban and rural renaissance are target areas for investment in the West Midlands.

Market failure in the North-east is now being addressed through the activities of the Newcastle/Gateshead Housing Market Renewal Pathfinder. The region鈥檚 housing strategy seeks to improve the health of its housing market by upgrading or replacing existing stock and addressing local housing aspirations. The needs of its ageing population also have to be taken into account. In the North-west the urban renaissance takes a lead, alongside delivering decent homes in thriving neighbourhoods and meeting needs for specialist and supported housing. In Yorkshire and the Humber urban regeneration is also set as a priority, with the decent homes standard and new homes within mixed-income communities among the other objectives.
