That’s the annualized gross sales price of new-built single-family houses in August. It’s a little bit of a step down from the 751,000 gross sales tempo in July, but it surely nonetheless places builders on monitor for extra dwelling gross sales this 12 months than final 12 months’s 666,000. In actual fact, it could nonetheless be greater than they bought in any 12 months from 2008 to 2019.

All of this paints an image of a cooling-down 12 months for the housing market.
