The Return: Property & Investment Podcast How to deliver 1,000 homes per day with Alex Notay (repeat)
It’s hard to make housing developments stack in today’s market.
Build costs are up
Policies are changing
Planning is a dragging.
So I asked Alex Notay -
Chair of the Radix Big Tent Housing Commission and one of the most respected strategic voices in UK housing -
what it really takes to deliver 1,000 homes per day.
She shared the big lessons on the podcast, including:
- Treat housing as national infrastructure - not just a market product.
- Planning + policy + funding must operate as one ecosystem.
- Solve for delivery capability, not just land and capital.
- Communication matters - complexity without clarity kills momentum.
- The biggest risk in the sector? Unintended consequences from siloed decisions.
If you’re trying to develop or retrofit UK housing over the next 2–5 years, this conversation is a powerful scene-setter - first published almost a year ago.
