The number of permits issued for the construction of housing fell by 1% over the September-November period compared to the previous three months, but remains above its pre-crisis level, just like housing starts, according to data released Wednesday by the government.
From December 2020 to November 2021, 470.000 housing units were authorized for construction, i.e. 70.200 more than in the previous twelve months (+ 17,5%).
Over the same period, "it is estimated that 391.800 housing units were started, or 38.100 more (+ 10,8%) than during the previous twelve months," said the ministry, residential housing having experienced the highest progression, in front of pure individual housing.
But "if we take as a point of comparison the twelve months preceding the first confinement (March 2019 to February 2020), the number of authorized dwellings remains higher but to a lesser extent (+ 2,4%), the same for the estimate the number of homes started (+ 1%) ", it is added.
Compared to the pre-health crisis period, the largest drop in building permits granted concerned collective or residential housing (-6%), while individual housing saw their growth confirmed (+ 9%) .
