We're seeing a surge in US single-family housing starts—the strongest pace in five months—which points to more opportunities ahead for new-home buyers. At the same time, permits for future single-family builds have dipped, meaning builders are getting homes underway now at a faster clip than they're planning for future projects. Completed single-family homes have also decreased, so ready-to-move-in inventory remains tight. Multifamily starts have softened further, with a notable drop in larger projects.
What does this mean for you? Builders are leaning into incentives and some price reductions, creating more options for buyers to compare. In moments like these, having clear, informed guidance on financing and incentive packages becomes essential. My approach is all about empowering you with the right knowledge—helping you weigh the value of builder incentives versus external loan options—so you can make confident, informed decisions. Right now, the best opportunities are in homes already under construction. As someone immersed in the market daily, I’m here to help you understand the fine print and identify the opportunities that truly align with your goals.
