North East New Homes Round-up

Posted 6 April 2020

The WhatHouse? team takes a look at new build developments in Yorkshire and the North East of England...

The housing market is unlikely to crash because of the effects of the coronavirus pandemic over the coming months, according to experts – and while a short-term price wobble is to be expected, Stephen Maunder of Which? believes this will hopefully be short-lived.

The pandemic's arrival in the aftermath of Brexit is less than ideal, but the housing market has proven largely resilient so far, and this is certainly the case in the North East.

Our latest round-up of new developments across the region includes some starter homes to suit first-time buyers right up to luxurious five-bedroom detached properties for larger families who plan to shift up the housing ladder.
