Urgent Reforms so people who work full-time can afford to buy a home.

Urgent Reforms so people who work full-time can afford to buy a home. — 8 signatures. Status: rejected.

Petition background

People cannot afford to buy a home even if they are working full-time. This is not right. Working families are trapped paying rents that are higher than potential mortgage payments, leaving them unable to save. They feel locked out of a future that once seemed achievable.

Additional details

Full-time work should provide a clear path to stable housing. We ask the Government to urgently review housing affordability and introduce reforms that: Link house prices more closely to local wages Tackle excessive rent burdens that prevent saving Address speculative and investor-driven price inflation Housing is not a luxury. It is the foundation of family life, financial security, and stability. Restore fairness and make home ownership achievable again for ordinary working families.
