BRE supports central and local governments to assess the condition and performance of their entire housing stock.
We have over 40 years’ experience in supporting the delivery of national housing surveys. This gives us an unrivalled depth of knowledge of the data, and of surveying and statistically modelling housing stocks.
National Housing Surveys
National housing surveys monitor supply, conditions, energy performance and fuel poverty, informing major UK housing policies. Our team has led survey development since 1975, providing specialist methodology, digital data collection and expert training.
