Builders blame a weakness among first-time buyers and rising regulatory burdens as the reason for the shift in focus in the pricier tiers of the new-home sector following the Great Recession.<\/p>\n<p>The number of new homes that sold for less than $250,000 started to decline prior to the Great Recession. Sales in this segment have not returned to levels set in 2006, particularly for homes with prices below $149,000, according to an analysis by the National Association of Home Builders, detailed on its Eye on <a href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/property-center-nigeria\/\">Housing<\/a> blog.<\/p>\n<p>Indeed, new homes that sold for $150,000 to $199,999 and those that sold for $200,000 to $249,000 dropped to a low during the recession. They have been on a slow, recovering pace ever since, the NAHB notes.<\/p>\n<p>The main drivers in the new-home market are homes that sold above $250,000. New homes priced between $300,000 and $399,000 had the highest volume prior to the Great Recession and have been the fastest to recover since then, the NAHB notes.<\/p>\n<p><em>Source: \u201cNew Home Sales Price History,\u201d National Association of Home Builders\u2019 Eye on Housing blog (April 4, 2017)<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>[ad_2]<br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/feedproxy.google.com\/~r\/DailyRealEstateNews\/~3\/JVUbWMc0mnc\/new-homes-have-gotten-pricier\"> link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Over the last 10 years, the price distribution of new homes has changed significantly, as new &hellip; <a title=\"New Homes Have Gotten Pricier\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/new-homes-have-gotten-pricier\/\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">New Homes Have Gotten Pricier<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":3017,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"advanced_seo_description":"","jetpack_seo_html_title":"","jetpack_seo_noindex":false,"jetpack_seo_schema_type":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_feature_clip_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2},"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false},"categories":[4],"tags":[1403,12908,543,127,258,204,41,818],"class_list":["post-3016","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-opportunities-in-new-markets","tag-buy","tag-home","tag-home-buying-guide","tag-homes","tag-new-home","tag-new-homes","tag-property","tag-real"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/JVUbWMc0mnc","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack-related-posts":[{"id":5499,"url":"https:\/\/amazingproperty.com.ng\/blog\/new-home-sales-are-high-but-they-could-be-higher\/","url_meta":{"origin":3016,"position":0},"title":"New-Home Sales Are High, But They Could Be Higher","author":"Amazing Property","date":"July 27, 2017","format":false,"excerpt":"New-home sales inched up 0.8 percent in June, but sales would be higher if there were more new homes to sell.
