bathrooms

Over a quarter of homeowners are using funds intended for new homes to renovate their current properties due to affordability challenges and high interest rates. Bank of America's Matt Vernon notes that homeowners prioritize functional upgrades like kitchens and bathrooms to enhance resale value, while avoiding non-essential features that may not appeal to future buyers.

AliExpress, the Chinese retail giant, is selling multi-storey prefabricated houses with bathrooms, solar panels, and two bedrooms for as little as £4,127, including free shipping. The company joins Temu in offering these prefabs, highlighting affordability and included features.
