With developable lots in short supply across the country, home builders are finding other ways to meet booming buyer demand. According to the most recent Annual Builder Practices Survey, one in four new single-family detached homes built in 2020 were located in established neighborhoods, with 19% of those homes built on infill lots, while 6% were teardowns. Demand for single-family homes continues to outpace supply, and infill development is expected to increase in market share in 2022 as builders ramp up production.
