2024 New Construction Outlook

Interest rates, permitting delays, additional environmental reports, labor delays, supply shortages have all increased the cost and risks of building. How will the building industry meet our housing needs under these conditions? Denise provides a building industry outlook for all levels of the industry and shares what is ahead.

Our builders and developers are at the forefront of the real estate industry. Without them, we cannot possibly keep up with the demands on the housing market. There are some lofty goals for housing starts ahead, so why aren't builders rising to the challenge? The industry is hampered with building regulations, more expensive money (interest rates), permitting timelines, and much more. What can we expect in the months ahead? Denise Lones shares her insights so you can see what may be on the horizon.

This content is appropriate for builders, developers, custom home builders, real estate professionals, and anyone wanting to learn more about what to expect in the construction industry for 2024 and beyond.
