Builder Sentiment Edges Up as 64% Offer Incentives

Home builder confidence improved slightly in March, but the housing market is still facing pressure. In this episode, Kathy Fettke breaks down the latest data from the National Association of Home Builders, including a small uptick in builder sentiment that still remains in negative territory. With 64% of builders offering incentives and more cutting prices, it's clear that affordability challenges are continuing to weigh on demand. We'll also look at rising mortgage rates, renewed inflation concerns, and growing uncertainty in Washington as a major housing bill faces pushback. What does all of this mean for the spring housing market—and for real estate investors? Tune in to find out what signals builders are watching right now, and where the market could be headed next. 🏠 ☀️ Want to come to our live event?
