Annual housing supply figures show that 212,570 new homes were built in 2022/23, an increase of 900 from the previous year’s 211,670, but still significantly below the Government’s target to build 300,000 new homes per year. 

The number of net additional dwellings, including conversions and changes of use, was 234,000, a decrease of 70 from the previous year.

The Government’s annual housing supply figures show that there were 22,160 homes delivered due to a change of use from non-domestic to residential, 4,500 gains from conversions between houses and flats, and 640 other gains from caravans and houseboats. These gains were offset by 5,470 demolitions.
