New home registrations rise, but more needed says National House Building Council
HOUSE building rose last month but is still short of target, new figures from the National House Building Council (NHBC) show.
July saw an increase on June in the number of registrations to build new homes as the NHBC received 10,638 new home registrations compared with 9,263 in June. This is also an improvement on July 2009, when 8,403 new homes were registered with NHBC.
In the North West 2,132 registrations were received in the quarter to July, against 1,474 a year ago.
But NHBC chief executive Imtiaz Farookhi warned: “Our figures seem to reflect what much of the housing sector is thinking – that too few homes are being built.”
