Lock in Your Home Today Before Prices Increase in 2022

It’s true that costs in most industries rise a little each year, and the housing market has been no exception. But with lumber costs going back down, you may be wondering why the cost of building a new home is still continuing to surge. There are several factors at play here, which we will break down below.

Although lumber costs have gotten better, the cost of labor and several other building materials has increased exponentially. A reduced labor force has caused the cost of subcontractors to go up. Many construction workers were forced to leave their jobs during the beginning of the pandemic, and not all of them have returned. 

Materials such as scrap steel, lighting supplies, and drywall are also in short supply. These price increases are unfortunately projected to continue into 2022 as the economy recovers from the pandemic. In addition to increased costs, demand for new homes has also gone way up during the past couple of years.

Luckily, there is still time to beat these upcoming price increases. Lock in your rates in January before they go up on February 1st!
