New homes growing in popularity

  • Not only would 53% of home movers consider buying a brand new home (up from 47% last year), but 21% would prefer a new build (up from 17%).
  • The government is committed to building more homes, with a target to deliver 1.5 million new homes over the next five years. 64% of developers expect housebuilding to increase within 12 months.
  • With this in mind and the increased interest in new builds as a choice for home movers, opportunity abounds. Source: Dataloft by PriceHubble, Property Academy, Home Moving Trends Survey 2024, Shawbrook Bank
