About this episode

FAI economists Hannah Randolph and Josh Hampson are joined by Professor Glen Bramley of Heriot-Watt University and Eli Harji of the Scottish Federation of Housing Associations to discuss issues in the housing market and how they relate to low-income households. The episode discusses how economists see the housing and rental markets, how affordability is measured, how housing policy and issues have changed over the last fifty years, and the role of social housing in reducing costs and linking to other services for social renters.
