Builders - What to Anticipate in Home Construction in the Second Half of 2021

They say the only constant is change. And over the last year and a half, in the building industry, we’ve known this to be true. Some builders locked in prices for their clients, so that even as prices rise and fall, the price quoted to the client remains the same.

It’s important to remember we are all in this together–no matter how we are dealing with these unprecedented times

Farmhouse style isn’t going anywhere, but it has evolved, and the design team here at RDS has embraced these changes when designing new homes for our clients.
