In July 2011, working with the Government, NaSBA published An Action Plan to promote the growth of self build in the UK. This was the culmination of more than six months work, involving over 100 experts in the self build sector. The report calls for action on four fronts and lists proposals that should to make more land available for self builders and more finance/mortgages; it should also result in less regulation and red tape and better independent advice to encourage more people to build their own homes.

To accompany this report, some international research was undertaken by the Department of Communities and Local Government. This looked at how the self build sector operates in Australia, Germany, Holland, Ireland, Scotland and the US.
