Deep dives
Impact of Tariffs on Homebuilding
Tariffs imposed by the government could significantly affect the cost of building materials in the U.S., particularly lumber imported from Canada and Mexico. Current tariffs already impose a 15% cost increase, which could escalate to approximately 40% with new tariffs. This situation raises concerns among homebuilders, as they may face additional financial strain during the summer building season, potentially increasing prices by 50 or 55%. The National Association of Homebuilders has called for an exemption for building materials from these tariffs to alleviate the impending impact on construction costs.
