Housing Revenue Account (HRA) Business Plan 2025
Barnet Council is addressing a funding gap by selling housing stock as part of its Housing Revenue Account Business Plan 2025.
Barnet Council's cabinet decided in September 2025 to sell off some housing stock to generate £10 million in capital, as part of the Housing Revenue Account (HRA) Business Plan 2025. This move requires Barnet Homes to raise funds through selective disposals of HRA properties, aiming to offset HRA borrowing requirements.
The decision was made in response to a projected £55.7 million funding gap faced by the council. The HRA Disposal Strategy, which outlines the plan for selectively disposing of London Borough of Barnet HRA properties, was part of the agenda for the cabinet meeting.
