Not Enough Homes Being Built Here Says Dickason
Elyria building inspector Hart Dickason says only about 10 percent of current homes are for rent or sale, and few new houses are for sale this year. No large projects are anticipated, apartments are not allowed in Class A districts, and costs for building rise 10 to 15 percent for materials and labor. The trend favors small one story homes, with many builders using subcontracts rather than general contractors.
