Intermediate Housing Policy Statement

On 16 January 2018, the Cabinet approved an Intermediate Housing Policy Statement (PDF, 160KB) to:

• clarify the definition of intermediate housing
• set the criteria for eligibility for intermediate housing in Haringey and parameters around the marketing of the product
• provide guidance on the preferred tenure mix for affordable housing across the borough in order to deliver the overall aims of the Local Plan and Housing Strategy
• identify intermediate housing products and support a range of other innovative and varied products, including lower cost market housing, which is not classified as Intermediate Housing but may still be affordable to those on low to average incomes.

All those engaged in the provision of new housing in the borough, in particular developers and housing associations, will be expected to have full regard to this policy statement when delivering new affordable homes.
