Company Report

A Barratt-Redrow Tie-Up Offers Strategic Logic Particularly in The Face of Urban Planning Challenges

Barratt Developments is the U.K.’s largest homebuilder in terms of both revenue and dwelling completions. Barratt aims to distinguish itself from U.K. peers with a sharp focus on build quality. While falling short of delivering durable pricing power, the strategy has been highly effective in bolstering the reputation of Barratt’s three brands—Barratt Homes, David Wilson Homes, and Barratt London—which consistently garner more awards than peer U.K. homebuilders for build quality and customer satisfaction from the U.K.’s National House-Building Council.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Underlying housing demand is likely to benefit from the U.K.’s changing demographics. The ongoing ageing of the population is likely to support demand for new housing over the coming decade as the U.K.'s average household size declines.

Bears

The U.K. government’s annual target of 300,000 new home additions is unlikely to materialize with housing market data not indicative of a material undersupply of housing.
