The potential concerns surrounding Brexit and the property market were debunked at the first South East Homebuilding & Renovating Show 2019, which defied expectations despite the stuttering UK climate by attracting fifty per cent more visitors than anticipated. The event, which took place for the first time between 18-20 January 2019 at Farnborough International Exhibition and Conference Centre, welcomed over 9,700 visitors across the two days, with an average project spend of £154,834 per person.
The inaugural event’s success demonstrated how buoyant the self-build property market is within the South East region, delivering fifty per cent more attendees than expected, with over 75 per cent of visitors having a live project underway within the next 12 months, creating potential significant sales opportunities for exhibitors for future shows.
Consumers were also looking to increase their knowledge and skills on everything from design, planning and construction to period renovations. The best-attended seminars and masterclasses included those on building homes with value, design inspiration for self-builders and renovators, while one-on-one consultations with industry experts were also popular.
Data gathered from the South East event revealed that 15 per cent of visitors were trade, a strong turnout for a first-launching event.
