Situated at 1287 Blue Tractor Lane, Alta at The Farm will span 5.1-acres and include 325 units ranging from studios to two-bedrooms.

Specifically, single-family homes were built at a seasonally adjusted annual rate of 963,000, up 3.2% from 933,000 in August and up 8.6% from 887,000 a year earlier, according to government figures. 

The Railside Lofts and Courts will be located on the corner of 13th Street and Municipal Avenue.

Single-family home permits and completions, meanwhile, also rose, according to the U.S. Census Bureau and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development. 

Low inventory and high demand are buoying builder sentiment in the face of several headwinds. 

Demand for newly built homes has remained strong as high interest rates keep many would-be sellers of existing homes off the market. 

The larger-than-expected increase comes as homebuilder sentiment rose for the sixth month in a row. 

A shortage of existing inventory continues to drive buyers to new construction. 

Single-family permits also posted a gain, indicating even more new homes are headed to today’s supply-constrained housing market. 

Homebuilder optimism was buoyed by continued shortages of new housing inventory, the National Association of Home Builders reported. 

The homes will be constructed using materials that match the natural West Texas landscape, utilizing advanced engineering and robotics.

U.S. government data shows builders increased the pace of single-family home construction while slowing the pace of multifamily starts. 

The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo Housing Market Index rose for the fourth month in a row in April as the construction industry remained “cautiously optimistic.”     

The supply of new homes for sale ticked lower from February, according to government figures.

A shortage of existing-home inventory is driving more people to the market for newly built homes. 

Homebuilders expressed “cautious optimism” that the lack of existing inventory would drive demand for new homes despite high construction costs and interest rates, the National Association of Home Builders reported.
