Single-family housing completions built for sale
Estimated number of privately owned single-family housing units completed in the quarter and classified as built for sale. Census uses this category when the builder intends to sell the house and land in one transaction; it measures construction purpose, not sales made in that quarter.
Quarterly estimates count units in privately owned new housing. They are not seasonally adjusted or annualized. Census marks the newest quarterly release as preliminary and revises the prior quarter; quarterly totals may differ from annual totals because annual figures include late reports and corrections. A single-family home is complete when finished flooring is installed, or earlier if it is occupied before construction is finished.
