Former Housing Minister: Policy Insights for Investors
Episode 10
Wednesday, 25 February, 2026

Send a textI just interviewed a Former Housing Minister And he didn’t hold back. UK housing policy generates headlines daily. For serious UK housing investors and developers, the challenge isn’t keeping up with announcements.It’s knowing which policy signals genuinely matter over the next five to ten years.Lord Gavin Barwell joined the podcast to cut through the noise around UK housing policy, including: → How planning reform is really playing outAnd why sentiment and affordability matter just as much as policy→ The delivery gap: why policy failure is often localAnd how investors and developers can influence outcomes in practice→ Why mainstream housing headlines rarely help investorsAnd how to filter signal from political froth.If you’re investing in, underwriting or developing UK housing with a long-term horizon - and want to stay ahead of political noise - this episode is worth your time.This episode is in association with (and thanks to) Lloyds.https://www.lloydsbank.com/business/industry-expertise/real-estate.html?utm_source=The+Return&utm_medium=podcast+partnership&utm_campaign=sponsored+episodeGuest LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gavinbarwell/Host LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/annaclareharper/
