"Alaska Economic Trends" in Residential New Home Construction
Posted on Fri, Dec 09, 2011
Great article from the Alaska Department of Labor Alaska Economic Trends on residential home construction. The good news is that Alaska has not been hit as hard as other parts of the country,
and things have started to stablize.
Residential building has been slow for several years, kept down by dropping resale prices and increasing building costs. A full 25% of Alaska construction jobs lost in the past 5 years, are in residential construction.
Complete details are outlined in the report. The Alaska Department of Labor & Workforce Development puts out a monthly magazine to the public. Sign up for your own copy.
Byler Contracting has weathered this residential down turn, and continues to build both residential and commercial projects all over the state of Alaska.
