New Home Growth Continues Over Summer

The number of new homes being registered to be built across the UK continues to outperform 2014 levels, according to the latest NHBC figures for July. Following the strong figures reported for Q2 2015, the new statistics reveal an increase of 14% for the rolling quarter May - July, compared to the same period last year, with 43,684 new homes registered in the UK (32,521 private sector; 11,163 public sector). Last year, 38,365 new homes were registered in the same three month period (28,804 private sector; 9,561 public sector). The public sector increased by 17% during this time, when compared to the same period last year, providing further evidence of noticeable growth as a result of the changes to, and the extension of, the Affordable Homes Programme.
