Single Family Homes


The US averaged building 1.4 million single family homes per year from 1959 to 2019. 

New home starts peaked in 2006 at 1.7 and dropped to 0.4 in 2009 and recovered to 0.8 by 2017.

Housing starts rose to 1.29 in 2019 and are currently 1.25.

In 2018, there were 128 million single family homes in the US.  There are 30 million apartment units for rent in the US. Mobile Homes range from $35k.

Restoring middle class jobs is the answer to allowing more US households to return to single family home ownership and give families a chance to grow their net worth through their home equity.
