Home Truths Episode 1: The Swiss Army knife

Peter Freeman, chair of Homes England, is the guest in today’s first episode of Building Talk’s latest series which is focused on the housing crisis and is co-hosted by Jackie Sadek and Peter Bill.

Freeman, who has been in post over two years having been recently reappointed until 2025, is widely known in the industry as co-founder of Argent and instrumental in the redevelopment of Kings Cross. He is also chair of the Cambridge Delivery Group, announced by government in the spring budget to drive growth and provide more housing for Cambridge.

In this wide-ranging interview, the podcast’s co-hosts wanted to find out how big a contribution Homes England makes towards increasing the supply of new homes. In Freeman’s own words “despite the name, we don’t build any homes”, so what are the limits to the agency’s impact and influence and how does Freeman believe it could do more in the future?

Episodes of Home Truths will be available every Tuesday.

Introduced and edited by Chloe McCulloch, editorial director for Building and Housing Today. Audio production by Tariq Aziz.

Home Truths is a Building Talks series produced for Building and Housing Today.
