Are new homes being built in Caterham?

26 of the 550 postcodes now in use in Caterham came into use in January 2020 or later, ONS says. In the 12 months to August 2025, 14 of the 358 homes sold in Caterham were newly built (4%), HM Land Registry's records show; across the CR3 district, 3%.

A new postcode is often a new street or estate, but Royal Mail also makes new postcodes when it reorganises old ones, so not every one means new homes. Only postcodes still in use are counted.

Standard sales of homes at market value that HM Land Registry marks as newly built. New homes take longer to be registered than other sales, so the latest 12 months count fewer of them than were sold. A share is given from 5 sales or more.
