The UK has a housing shortage. Although we need to build 240,000 new homes a year, each year we build approximately 100,000 fewer homes than this. In accordance with the Confederation of British Industry, or CBI, For the last 14 years only 4 years have managed to produce over 200,000 homes costing British consumers over £4 Billion from above-inflation charges every year. whilst in 2010, fewer houses were built than in any year since the Second World War.
On the plus side according to the CPA ( Construction Products Association ) the UK has experienced a 3.4% market growth in 2014 and foresee a further 5.2% in 2015 with further progress forecast for 2016 and 2017, An exciting time ahead for the construction industry. This will decrease the above inflation charge while also have an effect on property prices within the UK.
