Why We Need More Newly Constructed Homes

Why We Need More Newly Constructed Homes | MyKCM

The number of new home sales is far off historic norms. The National Association of Realtors (NAR) just reported that the percentage of all house sales that were newly constructed homes has fallen to the lowest numbers in forty years. Here is a graph showing the percentages:

Bottom Line

We need more new construction for two reasons:

  2. It will give better opportunities to many current homeowners who want to sell but can’t find an adequate home to move in to.
