Labor Shortage Stalls Housing Boom | Washington DC News
A new bipartisan law aims to tackle the housing crisis, but builders are sounding the alarm: the real bottleneck isn’t high mortgage rates—it’s a crippling shortage of 250,000 skilled construction workers every month. With older tradespeople retiring and no new talent pipeline, projects are delayed, costs soar, and homeownership stays out of reach.
