LB Housnlow is trying to support its local housing market by running two weeks of events focussed on helping first-time-buyers get on the ladder, backed up with a glossy magazine available free.
There’s a mix of information events from Council officials, and low-cost and keyworker developers from private sector developers and RSLs. All are at the Town Hall.
