# Barratt Redrow sells more homes despite ‘challenging’ market

By Russ Mould — 2025-11-05

Russ Mould, investment director at AJ Bell, said: “Investors showed relief that housebuilder Barratt Redrow kept its guidance on full-year completions unchanged despite a difficult market backdrop.

“The order book is proving resilient, and sales are holding up despite a lack of deals in the private rental sector.

“Barratt will be crossing its fingers for an interest rate cut later this week and an easing of gilt yields which could help bring down mortgage costs and boost prospective purchasers’ confidence.

“Unsurprisingly, Barratt put in a plea for greater government support for first-time buyers and further planning reforms to help facilitate growth.

“The company continues to make progress with the integration of Redrow and the logic behind the merger, which completed around a year ago, looks to have solid foundations.”
