Good morning John. Where I live, former corn fields are seeing spec home pop up like popcorn in a hot pot. And, they are being consumed as fast as they are available. Enjoy your day.

John, your summary of the June 2025 housing permits, starts, and completions is a concise and valuable snapshot of the market! The detailed breakdown, including the shifts in single-family versus multifamily units, provides crucial insights into current building trends. It's clear that while some areas saw an uptick, the overall picture suggests continued adjustments in the housing sector.
