Shutting Down and Restarting The Economy

[Bennie Leija]

COVID has been a event in our lives that I hope we never go through again. I am sorry if this impacted you related to health and if you lost a loved one. Since money is temporary.

We basically shut down the economy to a stand still and now that we are cranking the economy open and there are things that we need to consider as risk.
For me the lumber costs more and the lack of resources to deliver impacted me. 
The same for my doors, windows, brick all took more time and drove my cost up. 
I was exactly 2 pallets short of finishing a new build in Sugarland. I bought all that my vendor materials had during this time frame and unfortunately, I ran out of materials for my workers today.
I have been monitoring the materials and working with the vendors but they stated that with the economy opening up at this influx demand at once that it is taking longer to complete all the orders. 
I also heard that my competitors are having to slow down due to lack of materials.

I figured this is what’s going on our builds.
