Homebuying Demand Just Keeps Getting Stronger

It seems that nothing can deter homebuyers. Seasonally adjusted demand for the week of June 1 – June 7 is now 25% higher than it was pre-pandemic in January and February, marking the eighth straight week of rising demand.

Our abiding concern in May was about the number of homes for sale, but that’s improving too. After falling to 21% below last year’s level the week of May 25 – 31, new listings last week continued their recovery; last week’s new listings were 15% below last year’s level. READ MORE

As far as DIY projects go, this is simple to do. With some unique number placement, you can make it both challenging and exciting.

Platform Tree House Playground Fun

They’re surprisingly the right size for kids’ feet, and with the right strings attached, they can easily delight your little one as they wander the backyard.
