Since April 2020, skyrocketing lumber prices have caused the average price of a new single-family home to increase by nearly $30,000. Although lumber prices have dropped in recent months, NAHB continues to work with government officials to develop solutions to the broader supply challenges that threaten housing affordability across the nation.
