This exclusive webinar for HBF members unpacked the key measures and explored what they could mean for housing delivery, the market and home building businesses.

Our expert panel examined the Budget against the backdrop of wider economic conditions and the latest Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR) projections, including housing completion forecasts, what was missing from the announcements and the implications for the home building sector.

With significant interest in the forthcoming Your First Home scheme, the webinar explored its policy design, key milestones and preparations ahead of launch, including what home builders need to know about registration and delivery. The session also covered relevant tax announcements and their potential impact on businesses.

Questions were welcomed throughout the webinar, giving HBF members the opportunity to raise key issues and hear directly from the panel.

Speakers include:

  • Neil Jefferson, Chief Executive, HBF
  • David O’Leary, Executive Director, HBF
  • Ian Workman, Chief National Officer, Homes England
  • Ben Dewaal, Managing Director, The Fiscal Incentives Group Ltd (TFI)
