Bellway expects to build more homes than it originally anticipated during its current financial year, but it has also warned of an inflation risk from the Middle East conflict. Announcing its half year results, with completions rising 2.7% to 4,702 homes against H1 2025, the housebuilder said that it expected, in its full year ending July 31 2026, to be ahead of its previous guidance of completions between 9,300 and 9,500 homes, compared to the 8,749 of the previous year.
