Global trends indicate uncertainty in construction activity. This impacts contractors and sub-contracts who work primarily in Solar, Pool, and Single-Family construction more than nearly any other segment of the built environment.
While year-over-year permit volume trends have softened, there are regional spikes and opportunities for state, metro, and county construction starts – if you know where to look.
Earlier, Better Signals
Finding high-value projects in your area that match your expertise and having the ability to act on them – before your competitors – helps you win more, and more profitable, work.
For example, Florida, Texas, Georgia, and Alabama are top growth states. There are a variety of reasons; they are affordable, and zoning can be less restrictive. Other regions with explosive ‘move-to’ stats are North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Idaho.
What This Means for Subs and Contractors
Single-Family permit data is the most powerful early-warning signal in residential construction, and regional and county level data beats national reports. Chasing saturated markets won’t help grow your business, but following permit velocity shapes your future!
