Chesmar Homes, David Weekley Homes, Highland Homes, J. Patrick Homes and Perry Homes unveiled models to prospective buyers at the event.

The pace of new-home sales hit an annual rate of 800,000, its highest level since January 2022. 

The average new-home price decreased just slightly to $402,285, down from $402,741 a year prior.

At the same time, completions of new single-family homes were on the rise last month, according to federal statistics. 

Designed by KGA Deforest and Project Luong, plans include a pool, event lawn, splash pad, playground, pavilion and lakes.

Plans include a central gathering place for concerts, farmers markets, seasonal events and more, plus a clubhouse, playground, fitness center, coworking area, conference room, two pools and six pickleball courts.

The community will include 10 homes ranging from 1,862 to 2,905 square feet with three to four bedrooms, up to three bathrooms and 2.5-car garages.

Most of the Bayou City’s new apartments — over 7,700 — are located in Houston proper, followed by Cypress at 1,343 units and Spring at 1,109.

The upside surprise came despite monthly and yearly declines in the pace of sales. 

The single-family sector managed to eke out a slight monthly gain, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. 

The NAHB/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index slid a point to 32, reflecting ongoing negative sentiment in the homebuilding industry. 

The inventory of new homes for sale surged year over year, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development.    

The builder will offer 12 floor plans for 50-, 60- and 70-foot lots. Designs range from 1,599 to over 3,200 square feet.

New single-family home construction declined as builders continue to grapple with macroeconomic headwinds. 

The builder’s current projects include three semi-custom builds in Spring Branch and three model homes at Two Step Farm in Montgomery.

The organization issued a statement in support of the pro-development campaign at its annual meeting in Tampa.
