AXIOS 8/13/2017

It's one of the great mysteries of the U.S. real-estate recovery: home prices nationally are just a touch below pre-crisislevels, and at all-time highs in many populous markets, as buyers scramble to grab what they can during a 30-yearlow for housing inventory. Yet homebuilders are moving at a snail's pace to meet this heated demand — they arebreaking ground on just 849,000 new single-family homes per year, well below the 2007 rate of 1,036,000.

Construction Dive 8/23/2017

Strong activity in the nonbuilding sector drove the value of construction starts up 6% from June to a seasonallyadjusted rate of $728.1 billion in July, according to Dodge Data & Analytics. Public works led the nonbuilding sector inpushing the increase. A 7% drop-off in nonresidential construction was countered with an 8% rise in the residentialsector. The value of year-to-date starts was down 1% to $411.9 billion, primarily due to a 44% drop in electric utility andgas plant construction. Meanwhile, Dodge's Momentum Index, which indicates future nonresidential constructionwork, fell 3.3% from June to July due to a decline in institutional planning.
