Many people are unable to afford any property and as a result have to leave the county. Where will that leave vital public services such as hospitals and schools? I work at the local hospital but the so called affordable housing is not affordable. I looked at a development in Newquay selling properties to local people at 60 percent Market value but you had to have £35,000 deposit. Who in Cornwall has £35,000 to spare? Mad

Also, it is unfair that for most schemes you have to live in a town for the last 3 years. I feel i am being punished for moving out of county to go to university and start my career.

Second homes are the scourge of Cornish society. But I would guess it's more like 3rd or 4th homes!

Planning Consent MUST be obtained to change residential home to 2nd homes. Also, it should cost the potential 2nd home owner the price of building an affordable home for local people.

Currently, even if I were to be able to get onto the first rung of the property ladder, I nor most of my generation in Cornwall can ever hope of living somewhere with the sort of quality of life that makes us so proud of cornwall. If no limits are put onto second homes, and soon, there will be nothing left.
