Residential Construction Outlook Webinar Replay Now Available
What’s the state of the housing industry, and where will it go in 2023? NAHB Chief Economist Robert Dietz recently discussed key data to help answer those questions during a Nov. 29 webinar with Pro Builder Editorial Director Rich Binsacca.
The webinar provided an overview of the impact of interest rate hikes, supply chain issues, and rising labor and materials costs on residential construction. The presentation also included poll questions that gauged the sentiments of the audience, including tactics they’re using to combat current economic conditions.
The webinar replay is now available on ProBuilder.com.
A summary document with key highlights from the webinar is also available to download.
