Details
This statistical release presents the National Statistics on the stock owned and managed by private registered providers in England. Based on data from the Regulator of Social Housing’s Statistical Data Return it provides details of PRP owned and managed stock, details rents reported for low cost rental (social and Affordable Rents) and provides an overview of the PRP sector including details of stock movement and vacancies.
The release comprises three briefing notes (stock, rents and sector characteristics), four dynamic look-up tools (Excel based) allowing users to view the underlying data at a PRP and Group PRP level, a range of geographies and also view five-year trend information at a range of geographies. Additional data tables, raw data from the SDR and technical documentation is also provided.
These statistics are based on data from the SDR. This return collects data on stock size, types, location and rents at 31 March each year, and data on sales and acquisitions made between 1 April and 31 March. All private registered providers of social housing in England are required to complete the SDR, with those providers who own fewer than 1,000 units completing a shorter, less detailed return.
The statistics derived from the SDR data and published as private registered provider social housing stock in England are considered by the United Kingdom Statistics Authority’s regulatory arm – the Office for Statistics Regulation – to have met the highest standards of trustworthiness, quality and public value, and are considered a national statistic. For more information see the data quality and methodology note.
In 2020/21 the publication of these statistics was delayed due to the Coronavirus pandemic, with the release occurring in February 2021 rather than the originally planned September 2020.
