4.) Less competition to find land. Finding buildable lots has been one of the biggest challenges for our clients that wanted to build over the past several years. Good lots were being bought so fast you almost had to know the seller prior to them listing the land. This caused land pricing to escalate in some cases even more rapidly than house prices. The buying frenzy has cooled which has brought some stability to the land market. While we don’t foresee a large new supply of lots coming for on-your-lot custom builds, we do see the days on the market increasing for land which will help increase the available supply of lots. 5.) Resale Values will remain steady. Although the 2008 housing crash is still fresh in our minds, the current housing market is much different than in 2008. 85% of Homeowners have a mortgage rate locked in under 5%. This is the opposite situation of 2008 where homeowners had variable rates that adjusted to a rate that they could not afford. In addition there was a record number of homes being built. These two issues created the perfect storm of over supply and distressed sales which put downward pressure on house prices. In 2022 we have been under building homes for many years with an estimated under supply of 2 to 4 million houses. Since most people do not need to move the supply of available homes is not increasing much even with demand decreasing. This low level of housing supply will continue to support housing values without significant decreases in value, especially in the Midwest markets like Ohio.
