Market Insight

Industry Overview​

Supply:

Historically low and favorable conditions are expected to continue.

Single family

Single family residential (SFR) starts were 17% below one year earlier in the six-month phase ending March 2019. Multi-family construction starts were down 7% from a year earlier.

Multi-family

Multi-family construction remained steady in 2018, with year-end totals the same as the prior year. Demand for multi-family rentals has generally been higher during this residential construction recovery compared to new SFRs. However, buyer-occupant demand for SFRs is gradually increasing as jobs are recovered.

Shape

SFR construction starts continued to rise in 2018, turning in a 9% increase over 2017. While positive, this rate of increase was down from the previous year, which saw a 17% rise. Expect SFR construction to continue to slow through much of 2019, the result of rising mortgage rates, slowing sales volume and decreasing home prices. Further, compared to the 150,000 SFR starts achieved in 2005 at the height of the boom, even 2018’s positive performance – resulting in 62,600 SFR starts – is a fraction of what is needed to meet demand.

Like SFR construction, multi-family starts amount to just a small amount of what is needed to keep up with rising demand from California’s growing population. State-initiated legislative efforts to add to the low- and mid-tier housing stock have focused on encouraging more multi-family construction. Therefore, the slowing in multi-family construction will not be as steep as that experienced for SFR starts, even as home sales continue to slow across California.
