Surrey Planning Statistics

In the London & South East region (which includes Surrey), major residential planning applications were refused at the highest rate: for example, in the Mole Valley district of Surrey 77% of major housing applications were refused in 2023 — the highest refusal rate in the UK.
Across England in the year to June 2025, local planning authorities granted 266,400 decisions (down 5% YoY), representing about 87% of all decisions made.
According to the Planning Advisory Service review of Surrey County Council’s planning and regulatory committee (June 2023), Surrey is actively measuring its performance, with implications for speed and quality of decision-making.

What this means for your project in Surrey

The high refusal rate for major developments in some Surrey districts (e.g., Mole Valley) indicates the importance of robust, policy-smart applications.
With ~87% of national decisions granted, smaller residential/householder projects in Surrey still have a strong chance of approval — provided they are well designed and compliant.
Your use of an expert planning team (like Homz) which understands these statistics gives your clients a compelling advantage.
