"Recent data from the Census Bureau reveals housing starts fell 3.1% below September’s revised estimate, landing at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 1,311,000 units. Building permits declined 0.6% from September, marking a 7.7% drop from October 2023."

"New home sales dropped by more than 100,000 units last month, reaching a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 610,000, data from the St. Louis Federal Reserve Bank shows. A month prior in September, 738,000 new units were sold, meaning new sales have dropped by 17.3 percent month-over-month."

"In the spring of 2022, there were two open jobs for every unemployed person. Now that figure is just a little more than one. In other words, there aren’t as many opportunities out there."
