Why Builders Are Adding Zoned HVAC Systems to New Homes

from The Housing Economy with Fexingo: Home Prices, Mortgage Rates, and Real Estate Markets · host Fexingo

Episode 59 of The Housing Economy dives into how homebuilders are using zoned HVAC systems as a sales differentiator in a cooling market. Lucas and Luna break down why Lennar and Pulte are installing multi-zone heating and cooling in standard floor plans, how it saves homeowners up to 30% on energy bills, and why this matters when 30-year fixed mortgage rates sit at 6.52 percent and housing starts have fallen to 1.177 million. They connect the trend to builder stocks like D.R. Horton and KB Home, and discuss whether smart HVAC will become the new granite countertop.
