The number of new homes being registered is at its
strongest levels since 2007, an industry body has reported. Some 41,268 new
homes were registered across the UK over the last three months, marking the
highest quarterly figure seen since winter 2007, the National House Building
Council (NHBC) said. The latest quarterly figure also marks a 12% uplift
compared with the same period in 2014, according to the NHBC, a warranty and
insurance provider. The NHBC's registration figures are taken from builders who
are responsible for around 80% of homes constructed in the UK. Builders are
required to register a house with the NHBC before starting work, which means
its figures represent homes that are to be built in the months ahead. Read more
