Predicting housing starts for 2025

unnamed

Housing starts are projected to average 1.39 million in 2025, encompassing both single-family and multifamily units, according to ResiClub’s aggregation of 11 major forecasts. Notably:

  • Top Predictions: NAR (1.45M), PNC Bank & Moody’s (1.43M).
  • Conservative Estimates: Wells Fargo, Fannie Mae, and NAHB (1.33M).

Pandemic Context:

Housing starts surged to 1.6M in 2021, driven by remote work and low rates. However, labor shortages, supply issues, and rising mortgage rates later slowed progress, particularly in single-family and multifamily sectors.

Agent Insight:

New construction homes remain a pivotal opportunity for buyers and agents in 2025. Builders’ incentives, such as rate buydowns, could make these properties especially appealing.
