Housing shortages now appear to be a norm for several years to come as builders will surely pause on projects, or slow them down to a point of profitability. I cannot see a builder making the mistakes of 2005–2009…and ending up selling for peanuts. 2c.

Thanks Alex. We use quarterly Census data that only goes back to about the mid-1980s. You can find examples on this blog back in November.

Thanks for sharing. One question, how do you separate the custom home and single-family built-for-rent starts out from all of the starts? I’d love to see how this looks as a share of overall housing over the last 50-60 years.

As a question would come up, it was answered in the next paragraph.
