Use these graphics to show how residential new home construction starts are expected to rise back up to historical averages and increase the supply of housing inventory in a real estate market that is loaded with home buyer demand.  Home builders are regaining their confidence in the housing market by again building a larger number of homes at once.  This much needed increase in new construction starts should bring supply back in alignment with demand and increase real estate sales volume across the United States housing market.

Housing Inventory

As illustrated in the Keller Williams Realty International graphic below based on National Association of REALTORS® survey findings,  a steady annual drop in housing inventory over a 5 year period has turned a buyer’s market into a seller’s market and created a need for increased new construction starts to keep up with rising buyer demand.
