Would you print your house? At present, buying a home is not a reality for many, as the housing crisis grips people across Britain. But, 3D printing a sizeable house for just over £3,000 in 24 hours, is it too good to be true?
Last week, Theresa May announced that she was lifting the borrowing cap that currently limits local authorities ability to finance new house building projects. Alongside this, rising numbers of people are being pushed out of the property market, as house prices accelerate away from household incomes.
According to research company Hometrack, the average salary required by a first-time buyer to purchase a home in some of Britain's cities has risen by 18% since 2015, despite lower mortgage rates.
