Provisional figures from Homes England indicate that it has exceeded its key government-set housebuilding targets for the past year.

In 2023/24, Homes England reported that it not only surpassed its targets for housing completions and starts but also unlocked more land for housing delivery than required by its targets.

The housing and regeneration body has also facilitated the start of construction for 35,000 new homes, going beyond the target to enable 32,967 starts.
