There's still a pretty profound shortage of MFRs here too - but the same holds true for most of the south shore.

I would suspect Salt Lake City has no shortage of qualified civil structural engineers if you Google it.

Given the housing shortage/demand, might not be a bad idea.

So while I think your right it affects a certain segment of the market in my little world does not appear to be slowing anything down there is still a shortage of housing.

As far as the limited supply, I think eventually cities will come back around to allowing MH or tiny home type communities because the demand is growing already and the shortage of affordable/starter housing will need to be addressed at some point in the near future.

Prices are a little inflated right now due to a shortage of homes resulting from the 2016 wildfires.

Duluth has next to zero vacancy which is driven by the housing shortage that exists (in both rental and homeowners housing) and that is due to our cost of construction locally.

With the amazing shortage of skilled tradesmen and labor in our country (it’s getting worse every day,) the only way is to change the job and culture of the job completely.

Sounds like this might be a good time to be a contrarian investor to me...or to be a new home builder like i am doing.. if there is a shortage of inventory create new inventory.. fill the need.. 

@Gabe Hall awesome man cool to get a local response :) The duplex is actually in Mount Vernon, but the housing shortage is real up there too!
