Tennessee Construction Estimating Services
Tennessee is a landlocked state, meaning it has no access to the sea. It is present in the Southeastern part of the country. It borders Kentucky, Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, and Missouri. If you ever look at it on a map, it has a rectangular shape. That is why it borders so many states. By far, it is the 36th largest state. Which means it has a lot of land for construction. A Landlocked state has an open advantage in that it can’t get any material or labour; the other states can help.

Tennessee Construction Industry Outlook
Since the COVID-19 pandemic began, rising real estate values and rising rents have put a strain on homeowners and renters’ finances. The median house sales price in the United States increased by over $150,000 between the first quarter of 2020 and the fourth quarter of 2022, driven by cheap loan rates and a stronger-than-expected global economy. On the other hand, rent rates stayed low for much of 2020 due to COVID-related renter protections and rental assistance programs but increased in 2021 and early 2022.
Since the beginning of 2022, the United States Federal Reserve has boosted interest rates to prevent overall economic inflation. With rising mortgage rates and a quick increase in home values, the residential real estate market has cooled. The number of available single-family houses for sale is 1.3 million, just 8.1% higher than the all-time low set in February 2022. And, with millennials now making up the largest generational component of the home buying market, a scarcity of affordable entry-level homes has fueled competition for housing and kept an increasing number of young adults renting, leading to rising home and rent prices.
Housing scarcity has been compounded by severe underinvestment in new construction during the Great Recession. New housing authorizations often fall briefly during economic downturns, but the collapse of the housing market in the mid-2000s and subsequent recession brought authorizations to all-time lows. The number of new residential units allowed has gradually recovered during the last decade.
How The Pandemic Affected The Construction Industry?
Despite the apparent need for new housing, the building sector struggled to keep up during the pandemic. COVID-related disruptions caused personnel shortages and hampered supply chains, making procuring building materials more difficult and expensive. As a result, more single-family apartments have experienced months-long delays in the time it takes to begin and complete construction compared to previous years.
These changes have had a lasting impact on the residential housing business. The proportion of sanctioned single-family units that required two months or more to begin building following initial authorization rose from 29% in 2021 to 32% in 2022. These delays were much more widespread when considering the duration from construction start to completion, with 61% of authorizations taking more than two months.
Although supply is an issue throughout the United States, some areas are moving faster than others in permitting new buildings. Fast-growing Mountain West states like Utah, Idaho, and Colorado, as well as Sun Belt destinations like Texas and Florida, top the country regarding new housing development. At the municipal level, large metropolitan areas in these rapidly rising states are also among the leaders in new home development.
