And your mind, your tiny mind
You know you’ve really been so blind
Now’s your time, burn your mind
You’re falling far, too far behind
Good piece. LBG also in position to scoop properties from distressed customers. Banks, funds & their lawyers (including @AGinsight on BBC News re ‘build to rent) present false narrative ‘to satisfy the growing demand to rent’. BS. No ‘willing’ demand to rent. It’s forced demand

The financialization of rented homes: continuity and change in housing financializationhttps://t.co/kdSmc0HAmH— Real-Estate Land Development Limited (@RealEstateLand3) May 7, 2023
“Using data provided by the Financial Times (2017), it was possible to identify the ten investors with the largest shareholdings in the UK’s biggest housebuilders. This analysis revealed that the largest investors held shares in multiple housebuilding firms. Indeed, three investment managers (Legal and General Investment Management, Norges Investment Management, Vanguard Group) were among in the largest shareholders in eight of the nine biggest housebuilders. Through this, these organisations can exert significant influence not just on one housebuilding firm and its financial decisions, but on the industry at large. They could assert their demand for maximising shareholder value in eight different board rooms, knowing what the ramifications of selling their shares would be for wider confidence in the firm and its stock price.”
“The global nature of financial interest in UK housebuilders is indicated by the fact that many of the largest shareholders were not UK investment managers. For instance, an estimated 71% of all shares in Taylor Wimpey were, at the time of data collection, held by investment managers based overseas. The surpluses created by housebuilders, and then paid out in dividends, are likely to flow well beyond UK shores, and potentially be reinvested outside of the UK’s housing market. This makes it challenging to assess the ultimate impact of such large-scale distribution of surpluses on domestic housing production. It also poses serious questions about the prospects for decisive intervention in these processes by any national government that is seeking to ramp up housing supply.”

Bloor Homes is an English housebuilder based in Measham, Leicestershire.[1]
History[edit]
The company was founded by John Bloor in 1969.[2] In 2002, housing sales reached 1,870 making Bloor Homes then the largest housebuilder to be owned by one person.[3] As of 2016, Bloor Homes is now one of the largest privately owned housebuilding groups in the UK. The combined group is worth around £725 million.[4]
Legal & General Capital acquires full ownership of CALA Homes
Legal & General Group announces today that its Legal & General Capital division has acquired the 52.1% of CALA Homes which it did not previously own.
13 Mar 2018
The business has performed strongly under our joint ownership with Patron Capital Partners, with revenues growing threefold from £241m in 2013 to £748m in 2017, and profits growing at a CAGR of 12% over the last three years.
Legal & General believes that CALA Homes has attractive growth prospects under its continued ownership based on Legal & General Capital’s long term approach to investing and the attractive market for housebuilding in the UK.
If CALA Homes had been 100% owned by Legal & General during 2017 on a post transaction basis, the operating profit before tax would have been £91.5m. Legal & General reported operating profit before tax for its 47.88% stake in CALA Homes in 2017 of £42.5m.
The total valuation of 100% of the equity in CALA Homes was £605m. The acquisition cost of the 52.1% share capital Legal & General did not own was £315m plus additional transaction costs and financial adjustments to reflect the contribution of management and Patron during the period of our joint ownership.

St. Modwen accepts Blackstone’s raised $1.75 bln take-private offer
2 minute readJune 24, 202110:37 AM GMT+1Last Updated 2 years ago
The company has also benefited from a strong recovery in the housing market after an initial hit from the health crisis.
The recommended 560 pence per share cash offer for St. Modwen was final, Blackstone said, but it could make a new proposal if another suitor for the real estate developer emerged.
Shares of St. Modwen, which builds homes, owns and manages several industrial and logistics assets in Britain, were hardly changed at 553 pence in morning trading.

If Conservatives don't intervene in housing, young adults won't have any salary left. This sounds like a joke. But look at the trajectory. Rental prices = hyper inflation. Paired with more hyper inflation. Give it a few years and hundreds of thousands are in the negative.

The Polarisation of the discourse into two broad groupings is explained in an interesting paper
Framing The Housing Crisis by Chris Foye of Henley Business school , University of reading.
“To conclude though, I want to focus on two trends these think-tanks’ framings shared in common. First, all three think-tanks agreed that a shortage of supply was the main ‘cause’ of housing unaffordability. Inversely, there was almost no reference to the role of demand-side factors, such as interest rates, mortgage market liberalisation, the income elasticity of demand or income/wealth in- equalities, all of which are recognised by neoclassical economists to have comparably large effects on house prices and affordability”

MONOPOLY. FILM ABOUT NOW FROM #WHO TO #THEY
They're planning something re the baby boomers and their property and pensions. There's a lot of talk in the financial press about a "historic transfer of wealth". If it were direct to their kids and grandkids I doubt we'd hear anything about it. I think that's why you're seeing increasing spite and vitriol directed at "boomers" online. It's fuelled by books like "The Pinch" by the top Tory David Willets and "A generation of sociopaths" by Bruce Gibney, a venture capitalist. Initially Remainers were behind a lot of the online carping in the UK but increasingly we're seeing journalists from the New Right like Mary Harrington and Louise Perry tweet about it a lot. I suspect also nefarious actors from America get in amongst the social media comments. Extremely sad and worrying if your parents are still around.
