The new trend in housing is the return of the single-family house. The long uptrend of apartment starts as a proportion of total activity is not only over but has already started to go in the other direction - shifting back to singlefamily activity. This is the beginning of a trend that will continue for the next decade and a half.
We have crossed the threshold of a singlefamily housing boom that in the next IS years will rival the post-war single family housing boom of the late 1940’s and 1950’s - and in one very real sense will exceed that golden age of housing activity. More singlefamily housing units will be started in the next 15 years than from 1946 through 1960.
