Very Few New Homes Are Custom Built Homes These Days
By Scott Rogers • July 10, 2024
When speaking of single family homes (not townhouses or duplexes) currently being built in Harrisonburg and Rockingham County -- most of them are not custom built homes. There are now several regional builders in our market that are buildings many single family homes, often very quickly. It's interesting, thus, to think about how the overall housing stock in our area will be impacted over time. Twenty years ago, many new homes in our area were custom built with some spec homes mixed in as well, but we didn't have large subdivisions with 50+ or 100+ homes being built out by a single builder in just a year or two or three. I do not anticipate seeing this trend reverse itself over the coming years. I suspect from here on out we will always see more (or many more) new homes being built by large regional or national builders than we will see custom built homes.
