Victor da Cunha 🇵🇹🇬🇧 @victor-dacunha.bsky.social · 03/09/2026Agree with this very much. Shared ownership is, at its heart, a really great product but it does need review and modernising so that it’s fairer, particularly for the customer. 020

Victor da Cunha 🇵🇹🇬🇧 @victor-dacunha.bsky.social · 11/04/2026Experience tells me that if S106 was generally of better quality (in its broadest sense) & developers didn’t knowingly, deliberately pay above the residual land value, more would be purchased & schemes viable.
