Private-Sale Homes Built By Housing Associations Down 46%

The number of homes being built by housing associations for sale on the open market has nearly halved in the past year, according to the National Housing Federation. The NHF, which represents housing associations, said the number of properties in which construction began between July and September last year fell to 888, compared with 1,647 in the same period the previous year. This represents a fall of 46%. However, the NHF’s figures also show that construction starts of affordable homes in the quarter were up 5% to 9,538 and up to 43,666 over the year. This is the highest annual total since the survey began in 2016. Read more on Housing Today.
