Episode Details

North Lanarkshire Council is testing a bold new housing solution: mid-market rent homes designed for hardworking locals earning decent wages but struggling to afford private rentals or buy a home. Starting with 28 units at Coats House in Airdrie, this pilot aims to bridge the gap between social and private housing—potentially boosting town centers and supporting key workers. The council is carefully examining costs, rent structures, and legalities while gathering community feedback, with backup plans if the model doesn’t work. If successful, it could expand across the region, offering a smarter, more inclusive path to affordable living.
