HousingWire reports that immigration enforcement actions are disrupting construction trade crews, delaying closings, and raising costs in some homebuilding markets.

HousingWire, citing Wolfe Research, says September net orders fell 19.5% and 62% of builders expect near term labor constraints.

The outlet adds that builders are coordinating many skilled trades to deliver homes, and that enforcement-related crew disruptions are placing communities across the U.S at risk as construction timelines and delivery plans come under pressure.
