Good. Now I can upgrade my cardboard refrigerator box sidewalk house to an OSB box. Moving on up, baby!

How will this affect other construction-related materials? For example, I have been waiting to have my roof re-tiled and some other fix ups and improvements.

I would believe that general improvements are more of a function of the cost of local labor.

I have no expertise at all of roof tiles. Not my barrel of monkeys

Yes, and 40 years ago (1982) you could buy a fairly nice house around here for $50-70,000.

That same house is $500K.

janet janet yellen yellen says there is not recession coming.

nothing to worry about.

/s

The only bright thing in this year is that I waited to build our planned addition and have the money set aside for it.

Now I wonder if I want to build it at all ‘ecept the foundation is laid.

“Didn’t you know MBT is racist. The politically correct term is “principle bedroom.” Honestly, our country’s going mad”

Actually on the Home rehab shows on cable they refer to the MASTER as the primary. The last time I heard one of them say MASTER was about two months ago on the HGTV show “100 Day Dream Home” The couple that host the show are mixed race. The Black wife said on a recently produced show “MASTER” bedroom. I could have kissed her.

I keep hoping prices will drop back down so I can become a homeowner again, but all the “experts” keep saying home prices will never fall again.
