The Week Ahead in Podcasts & Articles

w/c Monday 8th September

Another busy week ahead with plenty to talk about across the housing, construction and conveyancing world. As always, Gareth Wax (host, producer, director) and Hamish McLay (conveyancing collaborator) will be in the chair for all of this week’s podcasts, joined by a mix of familiar and new voices.

Tuesday 9th September – Construction Matters

"Cement Crunch: The Weak Link in UK Housebuilding"

Cement production has dropped to levels not seen since the 1950s, raising concerns for housebuilding and infrastructure. Gareth, Hamish and Michelle Carr will be talking through what this means for builders, planners and the wider property market.

Wednesday 10th September – IPSA Kind of Magic

"Beyond the Listing: Why ‘Property Search’ Isn’t Just One Search"

This Wednesday at 1 pm on IPSA Kind Of Magic, we’re looking at why a “property search” is never just one search. From the Local Land Charges Register (LLC1) to the CON29R enquiries, we’ll show how these two parts work together and why local expertise makes all the difference. With Gareth Wax, Hamish McLay and Jackie Dyson.

Thursday 11th September – Property Quorum

"Too Many Cooks? When Too Many Parties Slow the Sale"

Property sales can stumble when too many voices, advisors or intermediaries get involved. What starts as a straightforward transaction can easily become a drawn-out process. Gareth and Hamish will be joined by Juliet Baboolal, Chris Gilsenan and Dave Symondson to look at how overlapping roles and competing interests can hold up a deal – and what can be done to bring clarity back.

Friday 12th September – Cladding Matters

"A Warning from Within: ‘Don’t Do It’ – The Shared Ownership Chronicles"

Shared ownership was meant to open doors, yet for many it has trapped them with costs and safety defects councils ignored for years. Gareth hosts alongside Hamish and Stephen Day, joined by guests Matt Lismore and Zahrah Aullybocus to discuss the hidden dangers in this part of the housing market and the lessons that must be learned.
