The problem with the U.S. Housing Market is not the availability of New or Existing Homes...it's the current high pricing and high mortgage loan rates. Pending Fed rate cuts for 2025/2026 could help with the mortgage rates aspect, but that likely won't spur new building permits applications (i.e. new construction) near term, as there is already apparently a glut of new homes in the market. (Just my opinion, do your own dd)
