The announcement of an upcoming UK general election has caught many by surprise.

On 4th July 2024, the British public will take to the polling stations to vote for their political party of choice. For some industries, general elections can bring a sense of uncertainty. Will the housing market be impacted by the news?

As Zoopla reports, the election announcement is likely to stall the pace at which new sales are being agreed to in the coming weeks.

Most buyers who are close to completing on a house will ideally want to push through and agree a sale now. Those who are earlier in the process may look to delay decisions until the autumn after the election is over.

Is this simply a short-term concern or are the effects wider reaching? Read on to find out more.

Find out everything you need to know about health & safety in shared communal spaces.

In recent years, legislation for health & safety in apartment blocks and housing developments has tightened. Just last year, the Fire Safety Act 2021 and Fire Safety (England) Regulations 2022 were introduced as an important step towards implementing the recommendations of the Grenfell Tower Inquiry Phase 1 report.

With that in mind, we sat down with Michael Dray Tech IOSH / TMIFPO, who leads our surveying and project management team, Associated Surveying. Each year, Michael and the Team visit every property under our care, conducting regular site inspections, comprehensive Health & Safety Fire Risk Assessments, and overseeing major works.

Who better then to provide expert insight on the new Fire Safety Act and what it means for residents, as well as his take on common, preventable issues normally found in communal areas.
