Note: This valuation is an estimate of the cost to BUILD the home for the builder, not including the purchase price of the land, and is not the same as the market value of the home. 60% of those permits are for single-family homes, and 40% are for multi-family homes.  Greater Houston, Dallas-Fort Worth, Atlanta, Phoenix, and Charlotte lead the nation in single-family home permits issued in 2023. The South leads the nation in both the number and total valuation of single-unit permits issued so far in 2023, followed by the West and Midwest regions. Orlando, Austin, Nashville, Tampa, Raleigh, Riverside CA, Greater NYC, Jacksonville, FL, Washington DC, and LA are all on the list of top 20 cities for residential building permits.  So chances are, there's new construction near you. You can find SOME new construction in your MLS but don't count on that as your only resource.  Use NewHomeSource.com and search by zip code to find out what's happening in your market.  You can also network with your local zoning commission, architectural review board, etc. NOT Knowing about new construction can mean that you'll do 30% less business next year because it's 30% of what's happening out there! Inflation.  2024 Should be a year of normalized, moderate inflation, but won't be a market-wrecking factor as was once predicted.
