We had a bit of a mixed bag on price changes this week with our overall composite market average dropping 1.1%. Our trailing 6 weeks shows a 6.8% decrease in prices.
Since looking at single SKU prices can be a little hard to see the forest from the trees we’ve started reviewing price changes on a sample home. The sample house we are using is a small 3 bedroom, 1,064 SF home with a 2 car garage. This week the cost of this home dropped $5.00.
There were a couple of larger swings, which appear to be corrective measures in pricing, specifically around 2×12 Doug Fir and 15/32 OSB.
Here’s a breakdown of price changes:
- Doug Fir 2×8 -3.4%
- Doug Fir 2×10 -3.3%
- Doug Fir 2×12 -9.7%
- DF 2×6 – 92-5/8 +2.1%
- DF 2×6 – 104-5/8 +2.3%
- Pres Treat 2×10 -3.5%
- CDX 1/2 +1.9%
- OSB 15/32 +16.5%
- OSB 5/8 -3.9%
- OSB 7/16 4×9 -5.6%
- OSB 7/16 4×10 -5.5%
