About the event
In the aftermath of the 2017 Grenfell Tower tragedy, the spotlight has been on the fire risks associated with external cladding on tall buildings. Insurers, lenders, and property professionals have since faced growing pressure to identify and manage these risks effectively.
You joined us for an in-depth webinar where we covered crucial insights into the evolving landscape of building safety, from current regulations to the impact on property values and the lending market. We explored how the PriceHubble database offers a comprehensive, independent assessment of UK buildings at risk due to cladding.
In this session, you gained clarity on:
- The Progress Since 2017: Discover what’s been done to remove hazardous cladding—and the challenges that remain.
- Fire Protection Measures: Learn how buildings are being safeguarded today and what steps are still needed.
- Property Value Impact: Understand how cladding influences resale value and lending potential for buildings.
- Barriers and Future Outlook: Uncover why cladding issues persist and what changes we can expect moving forward.
- Data Behind the Insights: Explore the sources and reliability of PriceHubble’s database, and how leading organizations are leveraging this data.
Matthew Grant hosted this expert discussion with Mark Cunningham, Managing Director of PriceHubble UK, and Julia Middleton, Real Estate Economist, and provided a comprehensive look at the fire risk landscape in the UK today.
