U.S. housing starts fall in June for the second straight month

Published: July 19, 2022 at 8:48 a.m. ET

Housing starts fall to 1.56 million, versus consensus of 1.59 million with strength in apartments offsetting weakness in single-family starts

The numbers: Construction started on new U.S. homes fell a seasonally adjusted 2% in June to 1.56 million, the Commerce Department said Tuesday. The annual rate of total housing starts fell 6.3% from the previous year.

Construction on homes is at the lowest level since last September.

Economists polled by the Wall Street Journal expected housing starts to rise to a 1.59 million rate from June’s initial estimate of 1.55 million.
