Everything I’ve seen is that the lumber business is insane right now, that looks to be just another aspect of that.

I wonder if the logistics situation is partially because of Covid disruptions that started over a year ago at this point still working themselves through the system?

Yep, we just need two weeks to flatten the curve.

I’m currently building a house in PA right now. We experienced a 20-30% increase in materials from when we designed the house in July of 2020 to when we signed the contract in December. We were lucky. As of now our contractors have told us some material costs are approaching 400% increases from pre-COVID. the housing market is crazy right now and I hate to see another housing crash like we experienced in 2000s...
