(FOX BUSINESS) – If you plan to build your dream home, now may not be the best time because of supply chain issues and rising construction costs.
Grant Everett thought he and his family would be moved into their new home by the end of 2021. Now they’re hoping to be moved in by the fall. The overall cost of the house has also gone up, including a nearly 50% increase for the lumber alone.
"You think, ‘OK, perfect, we finally have a plan,' and you move along, and the next thing you know, the price to get the home built has moved on you. It’s like trying to hit a moving target," Everett said.
