That's exactly what I described.
And like I said, there are no HAP properties. You can't build houses for HAP.
So that's unlikely to be what it is.
No you said it's a form of social housing.
You can build a group of houses and contact the housing authority re HAP and they will snap your hand off. Doesn't matter they aren't "HAP properties", they can easily be built with the view of renting them via the HAP scheme.
This has zero bearing on your original claim of it not being profitable.And if have the capital the only obstacle to making a profit, it would be easy to get a loan.
Genuinely confused by this sentence.I'm not sure what your point is. I'm aware the council buy private houses.
That doesn't mean a developer can offload to the council for guaranteed profit.
That's very different to what you said previously. Nothing in life is guaranteed, my point is that you can get very good money by selling properties to local authorities and of course make a profit.0 -

It is a form of social housing.No you said it's a form of social housing.
HAP Fact sheet
The very first sentence says;
"HAP is a form of social housing support provided by all local authorities."
No you can't. You can't offer HAP properties to the council. They don't place tenants. They have nothing to do with renting them out.You can build a group of houses and contact the housing authority re HAP and they will snap your hand off. Doesn't matter they aren't "HAP properties", they can easily be built with the view of renting them via the HAP scheme.
"HAP recipients must find their own accommodation in the private rented market".
As I explained. I'm aware it's possible to sell to the council for a profit.That's very different to what you said previously. Nothing in life is guaranteed, my point is that you can get very good money by selling properties to local authorities and of course make a profit.
That's not the same as speculatively developing council properties.
I think I the horse is flogged to death at this point.0 -

Social housing support does not equal social housing.No you can't. You can't offer HAP properties to the council. They don't place tenants. They have nothing to do with renting them out.
"HAP recipients must find their own accommodation in the private rented market".
They will often try and find places for people on the homeless list if people complain they can't find accommodation.
Again, this all has no relation to the profitability claim made by you.As I explained. I'm aware it's possible to sell to the council for a profit.
That's not the same as speculatively developing council properties.
I think I the horse is flogged to death at this point.
I said:
"I wonder though is he selling the houses to the council or renting the houses out under the HAP scheme?"
You said in reply:
"Social/Affordable house isn't really profitable."
It clearly can be profitable.
Building for profit is speculation to some degree, again, as is any other business venture. It's not a very complicated concept. 0 -
-
The phrase "Isn't really profitable" doesn't precisely mean "can't ever make a profit".
You're intelligent enough to understand the difference. So I think we can leave it there.
So what was the point you were making then?
I said I wonder is McGregor is selling the houses to the council or going to take on tenants via the HAP scheme, both ventures can easily turn a profit as opposed to a completely altruistic venture like gifting someone a house(no profit).0 -

Posted it in the McGregor thread but I'll throw it here aswell, just watching this on Gaethje. Very good short doc. I still can't get over him not using his wrestling considering how good he is. Short clip at the end of his first amateur fight, He got it after agreeing with his wrestling coach to keep his gpa up in return for a fight after meeting rashad and a few more lads in the gym and wanting to fight. He goes in with 0 technique and hit two monster slams on the lad. Well worth the watch.
