New Residential Construction

2/19/25 - Due to a processing error, the Quarterly Starts and Completions by Purpose and Design tables originally published on 2/19/25 were incorrect for Q4 2024 in table 1. Corrected tables were posted before 11:30am on 2/19/2025, to replace the original versions.

2/19/25 - With the January New Residential Construction release on February 19, 2025, the Building Permits survey has made modifications to the methodology for imputation. The previous process calculated imputation factors by region and the new process will calculate factors at a mix of division and large individual states. For additional details on this change, see our imputation section of our methodology page.

2/16/24 - With the January 2024 New Residential Construction release on February 16, 2024, we are updating our current and historical excel tables from the .xls format to the new .xlsx format. In addition, the format of these tables will also be updated to meet current accessibility requirements. This will also reduce file sizes and provide access to more recent Microsoft Excel features for data users. For additional information on this change and a list of files that are being updated please see the History File Update announcement.
