The latest government data analysed by Empty Homes shows
that English local authorities recorded over 205,000 homes long-term (more than
six months) empty in their latest reports to government – over 5,000 more than
a year earlier. This 2.6% rise is the first increase since 2008, though the
proportion of England’s homes long-term empty is broadly stable at around
0.85%. 70% or 37 out of 53 of the areas with the highest proportion of homes
long-term empty are in the North of England. The largest numbers are in the
lowest value council tax band. Read more on 24housing.
