have estimated the further investment costs to be £32,000

Alternative options considered
Option 1 – Approve the property purchase
– (recommended option)
This option will support the acquisition programme by utilising
available funds to maximise the opportunity to provide additional
housing provision across the borough. Whilst consideration has been
given to the Housing Needs Survey, property bidding data in this
instance has indicated a high demand for 3 bedroomed properties in
the area.
Option 2 - Do Nothing
This option would lose the opportunity to deploy approved funding
to help ease the demand for properties on the housing waiting
list.
