U.S. Foreclosure activity shows continued rise in third quarter, approaching levels seen before pandemic ATTOM has released its Q3 2023 U.S. Foreclosure Market Report, which shows there were a total of 124,539 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings — default notices, scheduled auctions or bank repossessions — up 28 percent from the previous quarter and 34 percent from a year ago.

The report also shows there were a total of 37,679 U.S. properties with foreclosure filings in September 2023, up 11 percent from the previous month and up 18 percent from September 2022.

Foreclosure starts tick upwards from last year

Lenders started the foreclosure process on 68,961 U.S. properties in Q3 2023, down 1 percent from the previous quarter but up 3 percent from a year ago — nearly reaching pre-pandemic levels.

States that had 1,000 or more foreclosure starts in Q3 2023 and saw the greatest annual increases were North Carolina (up 53 percent); Louisiana (up 47 percent); Pennsylvania (up 24 percent); Alabama (up 18 percent); and Nevada (up 16 percent).

“Foreclosures are on the rise again this quarter, as indicated by our latest foreclosure numbers,” said Rob Barber, CEO at ATTOM. The number of new cases filed by lenders in the third quarter did rise just a small amount from the same period last year and actually dipped a bit quarterly - signs that the upward pattern may be easing. But foreclosure starts are nearly back to where they were two years ago when the federal

government lifted a pandemic-related moratorium on most foreclosure filings. This rise in foreclosures might also be attributed to pending filings finally processing. Even with the national economic upturn and job stability, it’s evident that some homeowners are still grappling with the pandemic’s financial aftermath or encountering new challenges.”

Among the 223 metropolitan statistical areas analyzed in the report those that posted the greatest number of foreclosure starts in Q3 2023, included New York, New York (4,514 foreclosure starts); Chicago, Illinois (2,584 foreclosure starts); Houston, Texas (2,279 foreclosure starts); Los Angeles, California (2,273 foreclosure starts); and Philadelphia, Pennsylvania (2,104 foreclosure starts).

Counter to the national trend of annual increases, among those metropolitan areas with a population greater than one million that saw a decline in foreclosure starts in Q3 2023 were Salt Lake City, Utah (down 74 percent); Chicago, Illinois (down 35 percent); Kansas City, Missouri (down 34 percent); Columbus, Ohio (down 22 percent); and Milwaukee, Wisconsin (down 21 percent).

Highest foreclosure rates in New Jersey, South Carolina, and Delaware

Nationwide one in every 1,121 properties had a foreclosure filing in Q3 2023. States with the highest foreclosure rates in Q3

2023 were New Jersey (one in every 595 housing units with a foreclosure filing); South Carolina (one in every 730); Delaware (one in every 739); Nevada (one in every 763); and Maryland (one in every 780).

Among 223 metropolitan statistical areas analyzed in the report, those with the highest foreclosure rates in Q3 2023 were Houston, Texas (one in every 371 housing units with a foreclosure filing); Atlantic City, New Jersey (one in every 453); Cleveland, Ohio (one in every 459); Bakersfield, California (one in every 465); and Columbia, South Carolina (one in every 503).

Bank repossessions increase nationwide

Lenders repossessed 11,020 U.S. properties through foreclosure (REO) in Q3 2023, up 9 percent from the previous quarter and up 5 percent from a year ago.

States that posted the largest number of completed foreclosures in Q3 2023, included California (1,277 REOs); Illinois (1,057 REOs); Pennsylvania (743 REOs); New York (673 REOs); and Ohio (635 REOs).

Average time to foreclose decreases 12 percent annually

Properties foreclosed in Q3 2023 had been in the foreclosure process an average of 778 days, down 36 percent from 1,212 days in the previous quarter and down 12 percent from 885 days in Q3 2022, to the lowest level since Q2 2020.

States with the largest decline in homeownership since 2000 New data has revealed the states where there has been the largest decline in homeownership since 2000.

The data uncovered by RubyHome Luxury Real Estate reveals the homeownership percentages of all states since the turn of the millennium and what that means for the numbers of homeowners in each state.

Virginia is the state to have the largest decline in homeownership. While in 2000, the homeownership rate sat at 73.9%, it declined over the following decade to 68.7%.

Despite increasing to 70.4% in 2020, the rate suffered a sharp decline to 2022 ultimately coming to 67.4%. This makes for a percentage change of 8.8% since 2000*.

The second-largest decline has taken place in North Dakota, where a homeownership rate of 70.7% in 2000, has fallen to 65.4%.

This equates to a percentage decline of 7.5%.

In third, the state of Ohio has suffered a homeownership rate decline of 7.4%. In 2000 the rate sat at 71.3%, above the nationwide average of the time of 69.1%. By 2022 this rate fell to 66%, below the nationwide average of 68%.

In fourth, Connecticut’s 2000 homeownership rate of 70% sank over the proceeding years to one of 64.8% in 2022.

This comes in as a percentage decline of 7.4%, the same as that of Ohio.

In 2000, North Carolina and Georgia had rates of 71.1% and 69.9% respectively.

Having fallen to 65.9% and 64.7, these states share a percentage decline of 7.3%, the fifth and sixth largest declines nationwide.

Despite a homeownership rate that was already below average in 2000, Nevada’s decline from 64% to 60.3% makes for a percentage decline of 5.8%, the seventh largest decrease nationwide.

Oklahoma closely shares a percentage decline with Nevada of 5.8%. A rate of 72.7% in 2000, which fell to 68.5%, meaning the state has seen the eighth largest decline in homeownership since 2000.

Pennsylvania and Tennessee are the final two states on the list having seen percentage declines in homeownership rates of 5.4% and 5.1% respectively.

A spokesperson from RubyHome Luxury Real Estate commented on the findings: “With the general trend since 2000 dictating that the current younger generation are less likely than their parents to ultimately own a home, it’s interesting to see the states who are most susceptible to this phenomenon.

With this trend seemingly perpetuating, it will be pertinent to see whether these homeownership rates continue to decline or if the states most affected can reverse the trend.”

RubyHome Luxury Real Estate is a California-based real estate platform.

Southeast MLS Alliance unites largest multiple listing services in Georgia, North Carolina, Tennessee, and South Carolina

South Carolina and Tennessee -- allowing agents to work together across state lines increasing their ability to better serve their client’s real estate needs.”

The four MLSs together serve more than 100,000 real estate agents across more than 11,000 offices.

“It’s been an exciting few years for the real estate market in the southeast,” said Charleston MLS Executive Director Joseph Cullom. “We’re proud to be forming this alliance as an opportunity to better serve our members in all market conditions by providing them with increased exposure for their listings.”

The Southeast MLS Alliance launched October 1. As each MLS integrates all the systems’ native data, members of Canopy MLS, Charleston MLS, Georgia MLS and Realtracs will have a comprehensive feed of more than 85,000 accurate listings across Alabama, Georgia, Kentucky, North Carolina, Tennessee and South Carolina.

“MLSs were designed to be a resource and benefit for real estate agents,” said Realtracs CEO Stuart White. “We believe that being a resource for agents and brokers requires finding new opportunities to innovate and improve their services for sellers and buyers.

All listings – Active, Off Market and Sold – will be integrated into each of our systems, providing a seamless experience in the market data available.”

Southeast MLS Alliance is an alliance of Realtracs, Canopy MLS, Georgia MLS and Charleston Regional MLS. The alliance provides members of the largest multiple listing services (MLS) in the states of Tennessee, Georgia, North Carolina and South Carolina with accurate data for listings across the states. Serving a combined 100,000+ real estate agents in over 11,000 offices, the alliance will provide agents and brokers with a live data feed of all listings as well as create opportunity for cross-MLS referrals.

Staff report

Unusual housing Southeast MLS Alliance has announced market dynamics its formation as a data share system with its four founding members being the largest contributing to stall in multiple listing services (MLS) in their consumer sentiment respective states.

“It was time for likeminded MLSs in large markets across the southeast to come together and form a meaningful referral network for our combined members,” stated Richard Boone, CEO of Georgia MLS. “It was important the agreement kept the members as top priority and that the participating MLSs made geographic sense. Collectively, our members will now have access to listing data in four of the most desirable cities in the southeast.”

The alliance was established to provide real estate agents across service areas with more data and potential for referrals throughout the southeastern states of Tennessee, North Carolina, Georgia and South Carolina.

“The real estate market is most effective when agents and brokers have access to the data they need and enhanced confidence that it is accurate,” said Canopy CEO Anne Marie DeCatsye, Esq. “The Southeast MLS Alliance will provide access to this data for our market as well as data from Georgia,

The Fannie Mae Home Purchase Sentiment Index® (HPSI) remained effectively unchanged in August, as consumer confidence toward housing continued along the low-level plateau set earlier this year. Three of the HPSI’s six components increased month over month, most notably the component measuring perceived home-selling conditions. In August, 66% of consumers reported that it’s a good time to sell a home, compared to only 18% who said it was a good time to buy a home. Additionally, despite the significant rise in rates over the last couple years, only 18% expect mortgage rates to go down in the next 12 months. Overall, the full index is up 4.9 points year over year.

“Mortgage rates once again breached the 7-percent mark in August, hitting a 22year high and doing no favors for consumer sentiment,” said Doug Duncan, Fannie Mae Senior Vice President and Chief Economist.

“Consumers remain pessimistic toward the housing market in general and homebuying

conditions in particular. The overall HPSI is maintaining the low-level plateau set a few months back, and we don’t see much upside to the index in the near future, barring significant improvements to home affordability, which we also don’t expect.

While renters are slightly more pessimistic than homeowners, for two years now a large majority of both groups have told us that it’s a bad time to buy a home, and they’ve continuously cited affordability concerns as the primary reason. If mortgage rates remain elevated, many existing homeowners will likely continue to hold on to their current historically low mortgage rates, suppressing existing home listings and providing support for home prices – assuming mortgage demand maintains resilience despite the higher rate environment. Considering that existing home sales have traditionally represented approximately 85-90% of total home sales, even substantial quantities of new home production are unlikely to produce the inventory needed to meaningfully improve affordability.”

Duncan continued: “From a historical perspective, the current housing market is unusual, as demonstrated in part by the HPSI and its recent plateauing. Given the significant home price appreciation and rapid rise in mortgage rates, it is very much a tale of two markets, at least from a consumer perspective. Of course, a third perspective exists among homebuilders, who are currently thriving amid the surge in demand for new home construction, a function of the unusual dynamics at play in the existing home space between wouldbe sellers and would-be buyers, as well as changing labor market dynamics owing to the ongoing prevalence of remote work. In the past, first-time homebuyers typically sought to purchase existing homes, which were generally more affordable than new homes. They then invested sweat equity before moving further up the housing ladder, often in response to an expanding family or another significant life event. However, Baby Boomers’ desire to age in place and the impact of the ‘lock-in effect,’ in which existing homeowners are disincentivized from listing their homes for sale because their existing mortgage rate is well below current market rates, across demographic groups – but particularly among Gen Xers – has thrown a wrench into this historical cycle, making it more difficult for would-be homebuyers to find affordable existing home purchase options. This is driving demand toward newly constructed homes, which, again, has been great news for homebuilders and the larger economy, at least to this point.”

MARGENAU-Rumor mill misleads vets and prisoners There are so gosh darn many myths and rumors circulating out there (mostly online) about Social Security. That’s why I wrote a book called “Social Security: 100 Myths and 100 Facts.” You can get it at Amazon for less than 10 bucks. Believe me, you’ll learn so much if you read that book.

But there are two groups of people who really have nothing to do with each other but who both seem to have their own special (and very misleading) Social Security rumor mills. I’m talking about military veterans and prisoners. I’ll deal with vets first.

Not a week goes by that I don’t get emails from veterans who have been led to believe that they are missing out on some extra Social Security benefits allegedly payable to people who served in the military.

As is so often the case with these misleading internet come-ons, there is a tiny kernel of truth to the rumor. But then exaggerated claims and false information take over, and things get blown way out of proportion.

Here are the facts in a nutshell: If you were in the military anytime up until 2001, the government may add a small amount of additional earnings to your Social Security record. And note that I am NOT talking about extra money added to your Social Security check. These are simply extra earnings incorporated into your Social Security earnings record -- the earnings record upon which your Social Security monthly benefit is based.

So the good news is you get these extra earnings put on your Social Security account. But the bad news is these extra credits are relatively minimal and usually will have little or no effect on the eventual amount of your Social Security check.

And you also need to know that these extra earnings are automatically added to your Social Security account. There

is nothing you need to do to get the extra credits.

Now let’s back up and give a little more information about military service and Social Security. If you served on active duty or active-duty training in the military service any time after 1956, you paid Social Security taxes on your earnings just like anyone else working at a job covered by Social Security. And since 1988, inactive duty in the armed forces reserves, such as weekend drills, has also been covered by Social Security. That’s the simple part.

What leads to all the confusion is that Congress decided to add extra earnings credits to the Social Security records of military personnel. And the amount of those credits varies depending on the time served.

If you were in the military between 1957 and 1977, the government adds $300 to your Social Security record for each calendar quarter in which you received active-duty basic pay.

From 1978 through 2001, the government adds an extra $100 to your Social Security account for each $300 you earned in basic pay, up to a maximum of $1,200 per year.

There are times when these extra credits aren’t granted. For example, if you enlisted after Sept. 7, 1980, and didn’t complete your full tour of duty, you won’t get the extra credits. Check with the Social Security Administration for more exceptions.

Beginning in 2002, the government stopped adding extra credits to Social Security records for military service.

As I said above, if you are due extra credits, you usually don’t need to do anything to get them added to your record. If you served from 1968 through 2001, those credits are automatically added to your Social Security account. If you served from 1957 through 1967, the credits will be added at the time you file for benefits. In some cases, you may

be asked to provide your DD-214 (discharge papers) to verify your military service.

The story is a little different for older vets reading this. If you served in the armed forces between 1940 and 1956, Social Security taxes were not deducted from your military pay checks. But in most cases, the government did add $160 per month in earnings to your Social Security account for the time you served. These credits were automatically added at the time you applied for Social Security benefits.

So that’s the story. There are no big Social Security bonuses for vets. You don’t need to go to your Social Security office waving your DD-214 and expect to get a big pile of cash.

(Although, as I pointed out above, folks who served between 1957 and 1967 may need to show their discharge papers at the time they file for benefits to get those extra earnings added to their Social Security account.)

And finally, it’s important that I repeat this message: Those extra earnings you get for your military service aren’t going to make you rich. Because Social Security retirement benefits are figured using a 35year base of earnings, a few hundred dollars sprinkled here and there into your Social Security account will have little if any effect on your eventual Social Security benefit.

And what about prisoners? First, you should know that Social Security benefits cannot be paid for months that a person is confined to a jail, prison or certain other public institutions for committing a crime.

Or to be more precise, benefits are suspended if someone is convicted of a criminal offense and sent to jail or prison for more than 30 continuous days. Notice that conviction is the key. Lots of people end up in jails while they are awaiting trial or pleas. But until there is a conviction with prison time involved, benefits will continue.

It’s also important to note that while the

convict’s benefits are suspended, if he or she has a spouse or child getting monthly Social Security dependent checks on his or her record, those benefits will continue.

Of course, most people don’t spend the rest of their lives in prison. When they are released, Social Security benefits will be reinstated effective the month following the month they get out.

So, what’s the rumor being spread on the prisoner grapevine? It would have younger convicts, or rather, soon-to-be ex-cons, believe that as soon as they are released, they can waltz into their nearest Social Security office and sign up for Social Security disability benefits and have those checks start flowing into their bank accounts. There simply is no truth to that rumor. Of course, anyone has the right to apply for Social Security disability benefits.

But no one will get those benefits unless he or she meets all of the rather stringent qualifying criteria. For example, they must have worked and paid Social Security taxes in five out of the last 10 years. And they must have a disability that is so severe it is expected to keep them from being able to work for at least a year, or they must have a condition that is terminal.

If you have a Social Security question, Tom Margenau has two books with all the answers. One is called “Social Security -- Simple and Smart: 10 Easy-toUnderstand Fact Sheets That Will Answer All Your Questions About Social Security.”

The other is “Social Security: 100 Myths and 100 Facts.” You can find the books at Amazon.com or other book outlets.

GOLDMAN: Plan to be spontaneous at work What’s the best part of being a success?

You never have to chitchat.

As a VIP, concentrating on high-level issues, no one expects you to deal with idle chatter from the hoi polloi. It’s a tradition as old as time. No one on the team would hazard a friendly, “How about this crazy weather?” to Svein Forkbeard, King of the Vikings, if they saw him in the elevator.

He was too high up the org chart to be bothered.

For everyone else, being a big shot when it comes to small talk can accelerate your rise up the org chart.

Or so I was reminded by “How to Shine When You’re Put on the Spot,” a recent article in the Harvard Business Review

by Matt Abrahams.

When he talks about being put on the spot, Abrahams is focused on informal gatherings in which you find yourself facing “the daunting challenge of spontaneous communication.” And who doesn’t find themselves frozen when faced with difficult questions like, “How’s the family?” and “What did you do this weekend?”

The good news here is that “you don’t need to be extroverted or inherently charming” to make a name for yourself as a successful chitchatter. All you need are these five conversation

strategies to make your co-workers see you as a sympathetic, empathetic people person, so you can rise up in the company and never have to interact with them again.

No. 1: “Avoid the Default Response” A perfunctory response to a routine question will not get you into trouble; it also won’t get you into the C-suite.

Suppose you run into the CEO in the parking lot The CEO asks, “How are you?” Do you say, “Good, thanks”?

No, you do not! You use this chance encounter as “the opportunity to make a memorable comment,” such as “Did you know most people can’t lick their own elbows?”

Relevant? Possibly not. Memorable?

Definitely.

No. 2: “Know That Less is More” Once you start chatting, it’s difficult to know when you have gone on too long.

You are such a fascinating creature that stopping yourself from yapping away until your listeners walk out or, worse, pass out requires discipline.

One career climber polished their seemingly spontaneous responses by “practicing with sample questions generated by an AI chatbot.”

This is certainly a high-tech way to refine your responses, but it is limited to the concerns of the bot. How useful are answers to questions like “What

do you like best about being a Large Language Model?” or “How can we get HR to fire all these annoying humans and hire more chatbots?”

No. 3: “Dare to Be Dull” No further advice needed here.

You’ve got this down pat!

No. 4: “Listen as Well as You Talk” “Space, pace and grace” is your mantra here. Rather than shut everyone down with a snap answer that makes no sense, give yourself space to hear what others are saying.

Then shut everyone down with a snap answer that makes no sense.

The “pace” and “grace” parts mean you take time to “listen to your inner voice, which will guide you to communicating empathetically and making necessary adjustments as you go.” One warning: If you hear your inner voice saying, “This is really going well. Everyone is impressed by you and wants to hear you talk a lot more,” don’t believe it.

Your inner voice? It’s an idiot.

No. 5: “Organize Your Thoughts” Putting structure into casual conversations “enhances comprehension, emotional engagement and retention.”

One potential framework is the classic, “What?” “So what?” and “Now what?” architecture, to which I would add, “And what makes

Bitcoin prices have doubled this year and potentially new ways to invest may drive prices higher

BY WYATTE GRANTHAM-PHILIPS AP BUSINESS WRITER NEW YORK (AP) — Bitcoin is having another moment. The world’s largest cryptocurrency soared to almost $35,000 this week, marking its highest point in nearly 18 months — and more than double the price seen at the start of 2023.

The cryptocurrency rocketed from just over $5,000 each during the start of the pandemic to nearly $68,000 in November 2021, according to FactSet, during an era of massive tech growth.

Prices came back down to earth during an aggressive series of rate hikes from the Federal Reserve as it battled inflation, and then the collapse of one of the biggest companies in crypto, FTX. When 2023 began, a single bitcoin could be had for less than $17,000 after losing more than 75% of its value.

Investors, however, began returning in large numbers this year as inflation started to cool. And the collapse of prominent tech-focused banks actually led more investors to turn to crypto as they bailed out of positions in Silicon Valley start-ups and other more risky bets.

INSIDETRACT FROM PAGE 4 according to the latest American Staffing Association Workforce Monitor® online survey conducted by The Harris Poll.

The news comes just weeks after the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission released guidance on how to incorporate AI into a job search while still adhering to the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Americans with Disabilities Act, and amid ongoing discussions of AI

Now, bitcoin is getting another boost on the prospects of creating a much larger pool of investors. Industry advocates say a new way to invest in bitcoin at spot prices, instead of futures, could make it easier for anyone to enter the cryptoverse while lowering some of the well-documented risks associated with investing in cryptocurrencies.

There’s rising optimism about the possibility of bitcoin exchange-traded funds — a pooled investment security that can be bought and sold like stocks — potentially being launched.

A green light from federal regulators hasn’t arrived yet, but recent wins for some crypto fund managers with applications for bitcoin spot ETFs have improved odds for approval, perhaps in the coming months.

The District of Columbia Court of Appeals recently ordered the Securities and Exchange Commission to reconsider the ETF for Grayscale’s bitcoin fund, for example, after the company sued the regulator last year for rejecting its application over concerns about investor protections and other issues. The SEC did not appeal the decision.

Edward Moya, a senior market analyst at Oanda, also points to the listing of BlackRock’s iShares Bitcoin Trust by the Depository Trust and

Clearing Corporation, which clears market trades, gaining attention online Monday. That may have contributed to this week’s Bitcoin surge, he said.

IShares Bitcoin Trust appeared to be temporarily removed Tuesday, but was back online as of Wednesday. In a statement to The Associated Press, a DTCC spokesperson noted that both active and potential ETF securities appear on this list. iShares was added back in August, the spokesperson said.

Social media chatter, as well as misinformation, can make notable impacts on crypto trading, Moya and others note. Kaiko Research points to a brief spike in the price of bitcoin last week, for example, after crypto news outlet Cointelegraph erroneously posted about the SEC approving iShares’ spot bitcoin ETF on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. That post was soon retracted.

Still, the most recent surge bitcoin goes beyond single developments or participants, Kaiko research analyst Riyad Carey notes — crediting “more of a broad market rally” around spot bitcoin ETF prospects.

Despite the recent excitement around bitcoin, crypto is still a risky bet. Experts like Moya call it “the most volatile asset class,” pointing to wildly unpredictable

fluctuations in value. In short, investors can lose money as quickly as they make it.

The collapse of crypto exchange giant FTX also “left a big scar” on the public’s confidence in the crypto industry and crushed retail investors, Moya said — noting that institutional money, like hedge funds, are behind the bulk of crypto investing today.

“We’re still seeing interest is coming back into the space, but it’s not the same as it was before,” he said, adding that he’s watching how future regulation unfolds.

And a lot is uncertain. While the price of bitcoin — as well as the stocks of crypto players like Coinbase and MicroStrategy — has risen amid prospects of spot ETF approval, it’s not clear if it will stay that way. A regulatory green light doesn’t promise continued gains. “(In the case of approval), are we going to see sustained interest? Are we going to see the trading volumes with this ETF? If it disappoints, then bitcoin’s going to struggle,” Moya said. “I might be more short-term bullish until we get the actual confirmation.”

As of around 12:30 p.m. ET Wednesday, the price of bitcoin stood at $34,789.

screening tools acting with inherent bias when making important decisions.

The skepticism is higher among individuals actively involved in the job-seeking process. Among those who are at least considering a new job, 43% believe AI recruiting tools are more biased than humans, compared to just 29% of those with no immediate plans for a job change.

At the same time, the study found that 39% of current job seekers have

used AI tools to assist in applying for a job. Usage varies based on race/ ethnicity among U.S. residents, with 36% of Hispanic and 34% of Black U.S. adults saying they have used AI when applying for a job, compared to only 17% of White Americans.

“Job seekers may feel comfortable using artificial intelligence tools in their job search, but that does not equate to trusting AI to make fair hiring decisions,” said ASA chief executive

officer Richard Wahlquist. “As AI tools become more widely deployed, it’s critical that hiring managers work to increase transparency and accountability in their hiring processes and use tools that meet current and emerging antibias standards. It’s also critically important that policymakers and technologists thoughtfully consider measures intended to lower bias in AI hiring systems.”

Construction spending grows 0.5 percent in to a $1.98T annual rate Total construction spending increased by 0.5 percent in August, driven by increases in most large nonresidential construction segments in addition to residential projects, according to an analysis of federal spending data the Associated General Contractors of America released today. Association officials said that while growing demand for construction is welcome news, construction firms remain concerned about finding enough qualified workers to keep pace with demand.

“For now, all types of construction are growing,” said Ken Simonson, the association’s chief economist. “But unless the supply of qualified workers increases, many projects are likely to be delayed.”

Construction spending, not adjusted

for inflation, totaled $1.983 trillion at a seasonally adjusted annual rate in August. That figure is 0.5 percent above the July rate, which was revised up from the initial estimate. Spending on private residential construction increased for the fourth consecutive month in August, by 0.6 percent. Spending on private nonresidential construction increased by 0.3 percent in August, while public construction investment increased 0.6 percent.

Spending was mostly positive among large nonresidential segments. Spending on manufacturing plants increased 1.2 percent between July and August.

Spending on power, highway and street, office, and health care construction each grew by 0.4 percent for the month.

Educational construction was flat. In contrast, commercial construction— comprising warehouse, retail, and farm construction—fell by 0.9 percent in August compared to a month ago.

Residential spending grew by 0.6 percent from July to August. Single-family homebuilding contributed the majority share of the growth, expanding by 1.7 percent for the month. New multifamily construction was up 0.6 percent compared to July.

Association officials noted that its recent workforce survey found that 88 percent of construction firms that are hiring are having a hard time finding enough qualified workers. They urged federal officials to allow more people with construction skills

to lawfully enter the country as a short time fix to labor shortages. And they pushed Congress and the Biden administration to boost funding for career and technical education to expose and prepare more domestic workers for high-paying careers in construction.

“We are seeing strong and growing investments in construction projects from both the private and the public sectors,” said Stephen E. Sandherr, the association’s chief executive officer. “But without new investments in construction education & training as well as programs to allow skilled construction workers into the country, those projects are going to take longer and cost more to get built.”
