Thousands of people move to Birmingham every year, and the demand for homes has been growing. Being the second-most populous city in the UK, there is a need for more housing for the growing number of residents. New-build homes help address this demand by providing additional housing options.
New-build homes not only ease the issue of housing shortage but also help implement the latest standards in sustainability and environmental efficiency. They can have lower carbon footprint, create jobs, and a lot more.
Some neighbourhoods in Birmingham have seen more people move there. For instance, Digbeth is one of the most popular neighbourhoods attracting creative professionals from all over the country.
Birmingham has several new housing projects that are coming up in various neighbourhoods and some of them get sold out quickly as well.
The Office for National Statistics publishes localised house sale figures breaking England into 6,809 neighbourhoods.
