Only 24% of second homes are used solely for that purpose

Latest data from the English Housing Survey reveals that there are 3.3 million second homes. Of that, the vast majority are rented out (69%).

A small portion are second homes which are due to be rented out or sold shortly (6%) and a very small slice are used by student children (just 1%).

Which means the remainder (24%) are used exclusively as a second home. Source: #Dataloft, English Housing Survey, data for 2021–2022
