Housing Starts Down

Housing starts in England for the first quarter of 2018 were down 8% the same time last year and 3% on the previous three months. New housebuilding data from the Ministry of Housing, Communities & Local Government show there were 39,350 starts in the three months to the end of March. There were 38,160 completions in the same period, down 4% on 2017 and 9% on the previous quarter. These statistics are based largely on data from warranty providers and are known to underestimate the true figure of housebuilding. Read more on the Gov UK website.
