Number of New Homes Registrations 'At Strongest Level since 2007'

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 on the Yahoo! News website.
