This graph goes a long way towards explaining why British houses look so cheap and are such low quality, even though they're expensive to buy.
They are, in fact, built cheaply
The graph comes from this report, very much worth reading: https://institute.global/insights/economic-prosperity/the-urgent-need-to-build-more-homes
and I'd also recommend this as a relevant follow-up to issues of not just housing but the economy at large: https://ukfoundations.co
