The country has not built enough homes for decades. As a
result, existing homes must house more people and last for much longer, which
has led to the country spending nearly as much on the repair and maintenance of
existing homes as it does building new ones. But analysis reveals that one in
10 new home buyers are dissatisfied with the quality of their new home and one
in six would not recommend their house builder to a friend. The research,
carried out for the LGA, also reveals most local areas have more homes built
before 1930 then from any other period of time, demonstrating the age of much
of England’s housing stock. Read more on the LGA website.
