Liverpool Council expects to dispose of houses which have become the subject of legal action later this month.
Dozens of properties were acquired by Liverpool Council on Tunstall Street, L7, between 2018 and 2020 as part of the Housing Market Renewal Initiative (HMRI). Following the cancellation of that project, the local authority decided to refurbish the houses and dispose of them for around £3m.
New documents released ahead of the council’s strategic development and housing committee on Thursday have confirmed the homes expect to be fully disposed by the end of this month. In an update to the committee, cabinet member, Cllr Sarah Doyle, said the authority has refurbished 25 derelict terraced properties “complementing the investment made by home owners through the Homes for £1 scheme in the surrounding streets.”
