Housebuilding Output Drops, Opportunities Rise

The need for an up-to-date housebuilders database has never been greater says Damian Kemp, Windowbase Commercial Manager: ‘Rapid change in the financial markets and subsequent doubts about future housebuilding output have left the industry re-organising.

‘Recent reports in the national press suggest that the original, projected number of 165,000 new homes this year may be closer to 110,000. Unless a company has an up-to-date and accurate database to begin with and someone dedicated to tracking market changes they will be left chasing dead-ends as housebuilders make changes to accommodate the lower output.

‘We have the only comprehensive, regularly updated housebuilders database on the market. It doesn't matter if they're building one or one thousand houses a year, they're listed. As output slows it becomes essential that you're talking to the right contact before your competitors do. Also the Bank of England, in it's Financial Stability Report issued on 1st May 2008, indicated that the worst effects of the credit crunch may be behind us - now is the time for building and consolidating relationships with housebuilders ready for when output starts to pick up. This is only possible if you have the most current database.

‘Nobody expects this year to be pretty. But those, using an up-to-date database, and talking to the right prospects, at the right time before slower moving competitors do, will be able to make the most of these challenging conditions.’
