Downtown Chicago has over 40 major developements under way and that does not count lo-rise and mid-rise construction in many other parts of the city. There has even been some movement to deconvert some condominium buildings and rent them as apartments. Time will tell.

Charlotte is a major growth region so we've always had a lot of new construction--mostly single family homes and rental units. We are not a huge condo market.

Carlsbad has been pretty good about controlling the development, and preserving open space. Most of the residential building is single family detached homes. There are 2 developments with around 600 homes, and several more planned and in the approval process

The downtown San Diego area is going through another building boom! And there is plenty of demand right now

I would say it is a mix of both and in some areas way too many rentals.

YES Inna Ivchenko due to the oil boom which has now gone to a temporary bust. Oil prices are on the rise and things are looking good but they really over built here especially apartments and motels.

I'd say so.  From Thousand Oaks to Calabasas new projects are being green lighted without any concern for the surrounding home values, traffic issues, etc.  Mostly apartment complexes because someone thinks there needs to be "affordable housing" in a ritzy area with a median sales price of over $1m.

 

Overdevelopment and political idiocy running rampant!  Wouldn't surprise me if other stuff was running rampant too!

Big apartment complexes are going up like crazy all over.  I've talked to several millenials about real estate and I think its due to the many millenials not ready or not wanting to purchase a home at this time.

Overdevelopment?

Too many in my place in Florida would like things to remain as they found them in 1968,  They complain of EVERYTHING and label it 'overdevelopment.

Change is taking place at a rapid pace. More housing is needed. Curmudgeons have been successful in limiting the options available to builders,  so Townhomes and condos for sale have proven to be the available option.
