I dont think the cost of building a new home will level out anytime soon....Its been rising rapidly...especially in the last two years.
Same house we were selling then...went from the high $300 thousand range to now low $600,000 dollars. Our other developments with larger lots and houses are already close to or over a million.

Most likely material prices will continue to increase dramatically over the next few years......and it appears to be closely related to energy costs and policies.

At this point it doesnt seem possible that either one of my two sons, who both work hard at decent jobs will ever be able to afford even a modest new home.
