Where are we going?
At Livedin, our sights are set on shaping a future where self-building becomes a common, exciting, and empowering path to homeownership. We see a world in which individuals from all backgrounds can confidently pursue the dream of a tailor-made home that reflects their personal and environmental values.
Nationwide Growth
The near-term goal is to expand our footprint across the UK, connecting more landowners with passionate self-builders. By forging additional local authority partnerships and establishing robust regional networks, we aim to:
- Identify new pockets of land for self-build developments
- Introduce uniform planning procedures to simplify red tape
- Grow a multicultural tapestry of designs, reflecting the diverse identities of future homeowners
Technological Innovation
We're in the midst of enhancing our digital tools to make self-building even more intuitive:
- Augmented Reality (AR) visualisations for prospective plots
- More advanced project tracking dashboards, from concept to completion
- Integrated finance and mortgage options within our platform
Sustainable and Socially Conscious Development
A major pillar of our growth strategy is to champion eco-friendly, socially inclusive practices. We're setting targets for:
- Net-zero energy consumption in as many of our projects as possible
- Collaborations with community-driven organisations, like co-housing groups
- Ongoing research and development into affordable green building materials
International Vision
While the focus remains on the UK, we see the potential to replicate our model in other regions where housing markets are ripe for innovation. We envision:
- Partnering with overseas landowners and local governments
- Sharing best practices in urban planning and self-build empowerment
- Cultivating a global network of self-builders who learn from and inspire each other
The Path Ahead
Every step we take is grounded in our belief that people deserve a bigger say in how and where they live. By marrying digital innovation with hands-on support, and by prioritising community engagement at every turn, Livedin is steadfast in its mission to redefine housing from a mass-produced commodity into a personal, community-driven journey.
