Too many properties are energy-inefficient and expensive to heat. Too many people have no home, or one that is not adequate for their needs.These are complex problems with no easy solutions.However, one positive step the Chancellor could take is to remove or reduce stamp duty for older people who want to downsize.That, too, would free up housing for younger generations.Moving is expensive and…
