Best In Luxury Real Estate™

The latest U.S. Census Bureau and HUD data on new residential construction presents a fascinating dichotomy. While overall housing starts saw a notable increase in June 2026, single-family starts remained largely stagnant. For the national luxury real estate market, this trend carries significant implications for future inventory and property valuations. What are your thoughts on how this divergence in construction trends will shape the high-end residential market over the next 12-18 months? Will we see a further premium on existing luxury assets, or a renewed focus on custom build opportunities on available land?
