HOUSING COLLUSION CLAIM
If you bought a new home from 8 specific building developers between January 2022 and February 2024, you could be eligible to recover compensation.
If you bought a home from one of these developers you may have a claim
If you bought a new build home, between January 2022 and February 2024, from one of the below list of developers, you could be owed up to £30,000 in compensation:
-
- Barratt Developments plc & Redrow plc;
- Bellway plc;
- The Berkley Group plc;
- Bloor Homes Limited;
- Persimmon plc;
- Taylor Wimpey plc;
- Vistry Group plc.
The UK’s regulator watchdog, the CMA, suspected that between January 2022 and Feburary 2024 about the new residential developments they built and sold. This is often called “collusion”.
To conclude its investigation, the CMA accepted commitments from these developers of £100 million.
We believe the way these developers may have colluded may have caused you to overpay for your home and/or to miss out on valuable upgrades like improved kitchens.
We intend on bringing this claim for a group of claimants who may be owed compensation from these developers for the same behaviour.

WHY JOIN THE CLAIM?
Your home – your castle
Your home is likely to be your most significant asset, and the mortgage you have taken out may well be the most significant debt you have.
We believe these housing developers’ potential collusive conduct has caused you to overpay for your home (and therefore have a higher mortgage) and/or led you to miss out on valuable upgrades like improved kitchens.
HOW DOES THE CLAIM WORK?
We estimate that approximately 70,000 homes were affected by these developers’ potentially collusive conduct.
Once you have signed up, we will file proceedings against the developers, along with other claimants. This is what’s called an “opt-in” collective proceeding, and it gives you strength in numbers.
This is also a “no win no fee” claim. This means that if you do not receive any compensation for your claim, and you stick to your agreement with us, you will not owe us anything.
