• Cala Homes and Barratt Homes still monopolise the market, with Cala being by far the biggest spenders
• Cala Homes and Barratt Homes still spend a significant proportion of their advertising budget nationally, as do McCathty
& Stone and Countryside Properties
• Barratt, Cala and Countryside are still spending +40% of their overall budget on online advertising, with the latter
spending over 70% of their budget there
• Galliard and Redrow Homes are the advertisers who invest the highest % of their budget in TV advertising
• Stewart Milne, McCarthy & Stone, Carronvale, Ogilvie, St George and Taylor Wimpey continue to invest heavily in press
advertising
• Bovis Homes has experienced “strong trading” in 2012 so far, with its private reservations rising 19% over the year to
date.
The housebuilder said that the increase was driven by a 17% rise in active sales outlets averaging 82 to date, up from
an average of 70 in the prior period.
