Multifamily Building Permits At Highest Levels in Decades
The 2021 total of multifamily housing construction building permits in southeast Michigan has exceeded the total for the last 20 years! So far, 1,762 permits have been issued, making 2021 the best year since 1998. Even as the housing market continues to stay hot, many people are more interested in renting. Along with multifamily housing, new home construction is also up. August was the 15th straight month in which more than 300 permits were issued.
