UK Government to Spend £6 Billion to Reacquire 36,347 Military Homes from Annington Property
Dec 17, 2024, 08:59 AM
The UK government has agreed to repurchase 36,347 military homes and associated real estate from Annington Property, owned by Guy Hands, for £6 billion. This decision follows the company's unsuccessful attempts to block the sale through legal means. The initiative aims to restore these properties to public ownership, providing significant savings for taxpayers. Defence officials emphasized the importance of prioritizing defense housing and improving the quality of living for military personnel and their families, marking a significant shift in housing policy just four months into the new administration.
