A closer look at single-family home sales reveals that while new builds have accounted for just under 17% of the figure in the last three months, total single-family home sales are at least 20% below the averages seen in 2019.<\/p>\n<p>With mortgage rates now flirting with 8% following sharp rises, many homeowners are staying put to retain their existing low-rate mortgage, causing short supply in the resale market. As a result, some buyers are choosing new builds.<\/p>\n<p>The overall impact on residential construction spending is likely to be limited as new single-family builds only account for 37% of total spending. 13% of residential spending is on multifamily housing, where building permits are losing steam, and the remaining 50% is largely composed of home improvements and transaction fees, which are much more closely tied to housing resales.<\/p>\n<p>Will momentum in the new-home market remain positive? The reality is that demand drivers look weak, with housing affordability at its worst level in three decades.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p>Written on October 27, 2023. This is not an investment advice.
