Number of new dwellings completed as a percentage of total dwellings (1086) Metric type
- Help text
- This is the number of new permanent dwellings as a proportion of total dwellings in the area. A new dwelling is counted as complete when they become ready for occupation. For local authority dwellings this will normally be when the keys are handed over to the clerk of works. For other dwellings this will be when a notice of completion or occupation is given, whichever is earlier.
Indicators of new supply statistics (formerly known as ‘house building’) data are based of quarterly returns by building control inspectors at local authorities and the National House-Building Council (NHBC). These are from completed P2 and AIR (Approved Inspectors Return) forms.
Totals are subject to further revision for late returns. Data for earlier years are less reliable and definitions may not be consistent throughout the series.
